Default Line Lock Selection

Who's using the SMJ Manufacturing line lock and how are your experiences with the product? Also, what is a momentary switch? I'm try to decided between the SLP and the SMJ. Also, if there are any other suggestions out there for line locks with pre-bent lines, please chime in. Thanks.

Stay away from the SLP line lock, there's been lots of people having issues with them "sticking" closed.

I've got the SJM ABS/TCS delete kit with line lock, but I had my own solenoid to use. I'm running a Hurst line lock solenoid and haven't had any issues yet. I don't use it very often though.

Momentary switch is exactly what it says When you press the button, it activates the circuit, and as soon as you let off, the circuit is deactivated. To be track-legal, you must use a momentary switch for safety. If you use a standard on/off switch, if the button is accidentally left in the on position, it won't return to the off position to deactivate the line lock and well... that could be dangerous.

I have the SLP line lock, it works fine but IMHO the instructions sucked ***. Wound up using a guide from the forum and didn't have any issues.
