Line lock on the Trans Am comes straight out of the master cylinder and has no affect on the ABS. Not sure if that helps lol.

Will see if I have a photo somewhere.

Well still been working a lot so not much more than stripped the wiring loom done on the car.

However i have tret myself to some new rims, I blame you lot for them though, i was happy with my 18"s till you told me i needed 19"s with the front extended arches!
I know they are quite popular rims but i couldnt find any others that matched exactly what i wanted:

19"
5 spoke
Spokes right to the rim
No lip
Concave faced.
Staggered fitment

so these are them:

[Image: IMG_1298.jpg]
[Image: IMG_1299.jpg]


The fronts are 8.5 wide so shouldnt be too much of a problem.

the rears are 10" wide though so will need to make them fit.
"Stance" and stretched tyres are not an option i like so extended arches it is.
