Line locks / roll controls

What do you have and how are they installed? Also I believe I need 2 of them for my FB as there are 2 lines coming out of master to each front brake (1 line to left, 1 line to right).

I am assuming they are installed in between master and brake (basically).

Thanks

-Ian

OK, how about this - Is there any specific brands you feel I should stay away from?

Hurst as well here. The FB only has one brake line going to the rear, I redid all the lines on my car. The lineloc goes in the line to the rear brakes to block off pressure, hardest part is finding the right fittings to go from the strange mazda brake 3/16 brake line fittings to the 1/8th fittings on the lineloc.


Not the greatest picture of it, but it is on the firewall.

The line lock goes to the front brakes and holds pressure so the back brakes dont drag on the burn out!

This is how I did mine (FC), I assume it would be similar for you guys in the States





I took the line from the bottom outlet and blocked the outlet on the side (which you can see in the second pic) and then just bent the existing lines slightly into the t-piece. I think mines a Morosso item, no complaints from me. And yes, as has been mentioned the Mazda fittings are all metric however the t-piece and locker are imperial. If your having a hard time finding them I'd just cruise down the the local wreckers and get some off any Mazda as they should all be the same size.

Got around to doing mine last weekend.. I already have an ABS delete kit on my FD so it was pretty straight forward.
