    I was just out looking at the Mav, trying to figure out how to install my line lock. It appears that there are separate lines to the front brakes. I'm not sure if the front and back brakes have different feeds from the MC. Can I install the solenoid between one of the ports on the MC and the proportioning valve or do I have to put in a splitter block, and plug one of the holes.

    Does that make any sense?

    Your solenoid needs to be installed in the line going between the m/c and the proportioning valve. The valve is where it splits to both wheels.
