Default Line Locks
Anybody have a good source for a good line lock... Looking to maybe put one on Z.

I have placed a couple emails but no answer from them.

I would tell you where I got mine from but I feel overall that I got ripped off so I never recommend them to anyone. Im sure someone here will throw a few links out there for you though.

I, too, have the Fastbird linelock. It fits well and works great. Easy install.

None that I am aware of. I helped a friend install a L.L. on his C5 a couple weeks ago, it wasn't hard to do. No issues with brake function on his or mine after installed. The instructions on the Cartek unit are easy to understand and it doesn't take much time to get the job done.
