Line Locks for 88YJ

[WhiteRhino4X4Him]

I have a line lock installed on the rear brake line of my YJ.
Would like to add one to the front brakes, but the proportioning valve has separate feeds for the right & left side. Can the front brakes be tied together or will I need two valves for the front ?

You run line locks on the corners not for front/rear however you can run them front/rear just not as affective.

Sounds like you want electric ones that use a solenoid?

Is there a particular reason you want them? Parking Brake? Cutting Brakes?

Have no parking brake
It has been removed
Using the rear line lock for parking but thought adding the fronts would increase safety factor

Gotcha, well if it's 'added' then just do it before the split or just on 1 side... as long as it holds your safe. Just leave it in gear... that's all I ever did when I DD my jeep w/out parking brake :)

Care to expand on this? Do you mean one solenoid for each corner or crossed where a solenoid controls front driver rear passenger and another controls front passenger rear driver?

I'm currently running front/rear and seems to work just fine.

Depends on what you want to do with them.

Front and Rear works fine for brakes but if you want to turn very sharp it's easy to lockup 1 corner and disable that 'end' of the vehicle and drive around the 1 tire.

So really it depends what you want to do.
