    Works equally well on the gas pedal. 😉

    thanks... I got no parking brake working at all...... this will solve my issue and add winch Brake at same time. Mucho Appreicato.

    When you were using this (before the Tazer) - were you leaving the vehicle in N or in P with this in place?

      And cheap, we used a electric line lock for awhile but it would get hot and turn off after about 10 minutes
      We did find a manual line lock set up for like $400
      But this was $30 can’t beat the price

    Nice. I plumbed in a ball valve to my rear brake line.

      We use this to lock all 4 wheels instead off just front or rear
      We no longer use this on the jeep
      We purchased a taser
      Which used the abs solinoids to lock all four wheel in “anchor” mode for winching

      @@matt.mckinzie - Can you explain how the Tazer Anchor Mode works? I can't for the life of me get it to work on my Gladiator. In Park? Foot to the floor - pull in the High Beam (toward the steering wheel) and nothing happens. I'm on the newest Firmware. I actually came to see what you were using and was probably going to rig up what you have here in the video until I saw this comment.

      @@Spyder-ManAdventures the anchor mode works in 2wd or 4hi and not 4lo
      We hate that fact but took us a bit to figure out
      Let me know if that works for you
      Yes hold brake pull high beam
      Oh one more you have to turn on the setting called brake hold
      Where if your stopped at a light and you push hard on the brake in D it also holds the brake
      That setting has to be enabled to use anchor mode

    For clarification... Do I understand right.... you suggest cutting with it collapsed so the inner bar gets cut too.

    I thought line lock was a term for locking just front wheels for burnout purposes 😂

    What would be the purpose for that? Maybe its just late but I don't get it. Not being a dick, just want to know.

      Tow trucks have a button “winch brake” that applies the brakes during a winch job
      Regular vehicles do not
      For a electric brake lock add on kit your looking at $500
      A line lock kit around $300
      We lock the brakes up to take some of the force off the ujoints and other drivetrain components during a winch job
