thats all it does mate, mostly found in drag racers etc.

basically there are 2 types, mechanical and electronic but both do the same.

press the brakes, activate line lock by either pressing a button or moving a lever and release the brake pedal - this will then lock the front brakes and leave the rears free to perform a burnout

Are they easy to install, they seem really cheap. Would it affect insurance aswell?

Depends on what your like with spanners / cutting brake pipes etc

Try asking your insurance the second one tho My guess they wouldnt even know what it is.

Glad to help out Wyn, thanks
