Rear Discs
« on: June 07, 2006, 10:50:03 PM »

I noticed Willwood makes a nice 4 piston disc brake kit for 8 3/4"s and Dana's but theres one with no parking brake and one with a parking brake. How hard would it be to jimmy up a parking brake with a line lock kit but connected to the rear brakes? Or am I just opff my rocker?

Line locks aren't for emergency brakes. The solonoid depends on elecricity to close the valve and keep it closed. If power drops too low, you lose the lock.

Get the kit with real e-brakes if you feel you need them.
