    im getting a line locker kit tomorrow for 132bucks.

    Just wondering once this is installed would my car dual wheel when trying to do a burnout?

    i drive a vs v6 1995 live diff.

    when i have 14inch stockies on it sometimes it will dual wheel but will struggle. most of the time it will single spin on the right side.

    your diff should only spin right. but aparently it can dual if its pointed straight (i think that it is more a sign of wear and tear). mine use to dual, sometimes the left would even cake it harder that the right. and now my diff is stuffed, so have fun:D what kind of line locker is it and how easy is it to fit?

    was pretty easy to install. needed to get some more fittings though that didnt come with the kit.

    hold the brake on what ever presure you what on your brakes then flick the switch. then take foot off the brake and the wheels will lock

    then do a burnout :p

    so let me get this straight...

    you can put your foot flat to the floor and press the button and then the front brakes will lock up. you then drop the clutch and drop a massive skid with no brake??

    then press a button and the brakes disengage??

    Any sort of time limit on how long they will lock for?

    :driving: Yes, I think from memory the instruction manual that comes with it says you cant use for more than 30 seconds.

    We burnt one out at summernats:hit:

    Now has a manually operated valve from a hydralics shop;)

    Just put pliers on your back break hose.

    That way you can use your frount breaks still.

    Thats exactly how min is setup, you can use these kits either way, lock fronts on, or lock rears off.


    What a stupid suggestion, your brake lines are only rubber, putting clamps on them more than a few times will eventually **** them. And even better, with a line locker, you don't even have to get out to turn it on ;)
