Right im going to start installing my line lock before i put the engine back in as ive more room to work in the engine bay lol

but i need to install it between the abs actuator and the master cylinder. My question is, which line from the master cylinder is for the front brakes?

theres 2 that then go to the actuator then split into 4 to go to each wheel.

I dont want to guess then find ive locked the rear wheels! doh.

ive tried Bahamut cars but no answers

Indeed bahamut cars doesn't go in depth enough, I found schematics of the braking system involving the ABS actuator but nothing that definitively describes which pipe goes where.
My only suggestion is to start digging and follow the brake lines to the individual wheels.

I think you may have to re-plumb the abs output. Chances are that the two supply lines into the actuator are diagonally split on the output as a safety feature. To get fronts only I think you will need to swap one front and rear output from the actuator.

Think I'll put a little water in the cylinder then push it through to the abs and work it out that way

Your idea seems sensible though pete, thanks

Can't you just undo the pipes from the abs actuator then wind in the front caliper pistons and see which pipes p**s fluid?
