i don't know why the line lock wouldn't work with an automatic. i know that it's hard to heat up my bfg dr's with a 5 speed without killing my back brakes.

I'm assuming there would be some brake bleeding involved, so I wouldn't want that as a DIY. I'd probably screw something up.

i myself like to live and learn, but sometimes you end up breaking parts that are more expensive than the one your installing. but i still would rather do it myself than pay someone.

I installed one on my car - from TCI. If you can bend brake line (recommend tube bender - don't want kinks) and bleed brakes you can handle it. There are a few pics on my homepage - just click the mods and then line lock. Also, I believe Joe Lynch (search for his name on Google or something) did a great write up on the install.

It's not bad at all - just watch your fluid level in the master cylinder when you're taking off lines and bleeding brakes.
