    I have a “line lock” as a parking brake in the sand rail...Its just a button you push, while applying brake pedal pressure..

    I've thought about doing the same thing. It'd be real nice to have discs all around. I'll be sure to keep an eye on this thread

    There are two or three different kits available.

    You're better off doing the 13W brake upgrade up front, as most of your braking is done by the front brakes anyway.
