And after 3 times of using vice grips, your brake lines will be worn and leak. Great idea.....

yea .. or unscrew the pipe nut and put two bolts on the each side .. like u blocked one of hole on 1inch bore brake master

Or, you just install a line locker kit (like the thread is about) and just flick a switch.

or you could do the coolest option of all.

no brakes pads :O omgwtffullysickburnoutsnobrakesahhhhhhhhhh.

You know what, that's true if this is going to be a burnout car. Then why the hell do you need back brakes? Take them off completely. I mean you won't need to use the car on the road so why not.

the line locker kit on ebay, do you need to install one on both the back wheels or can you jsut buy the kit and its all you need?

[Thomas1]

You only need one to do both the rear brakes. You install it either at the diff before the line splits in two, or at the master cylinder. You have to do it opposite to what the instructions say or else when you flick the switch your rear brakes will be locked ON, whereas you want them locked OFF for skids

Oh and it just so happens that I have a NEW B&M line locker for sale right now on ebay

At the risk at sounding like a complete idiot, what is a line locker and what does it do?

Google or search and you will very quickly find out

Short answer. So that you can disable the back brakes and do burnouts.

I can do that without a linelocker i thought it for more on less to lock the front brakes on

Theres 2 uses. Most people here would use the setup where the back brakes can be switched off.
You can't do that from in the cabin on a switch without a line locker
