Electric Emergency brakes
 
Is anyone using the electric emercency brake kits that are out there? I see they have one that uses the principal of a lineloc. Anyone use that one?

I've seen the one that has a large rectangle you need to install, it also needed you to hold the button as it pulled the e-brake and with that I though it was too large, heavy, and impractical...

I would like to see a line-loc version you found, sounds much more practical and I'd love to eliminate the e-brake handle/pedal for a cleaner look! It would only be a parking brake instead of an e-brake but I'm ok with that!

Streetrod headquarters carries them. Looks to be a simple as putting in a lineloc. Thanks for the welcome

I used a line loc style years ago, no electrical involved. It installed in the rear brake line; you pushed the brake pedal down, pulled up a knob and released the brakes. It held the pressure in the line, worked fine. Plus you can hide where the knob is to act like a theft deterrent.

Cam, do you happen to know what brand it was?

That's interesting, Jody. I'd like to know more as well if you have any info. They say that if it can't be driven away, it's less likely to be stolen. That even includes the high end thieves.

I think I might be going this route as well. Interesting anti theft device as well, if you place the toggle in a hidden position.

what about that constant pressure putting extra strain on the brake system? Imagine blowing up a expensive caliper
