Hurst roll control. Stupid simple hook up. I opted for a $4 activation button from Home Depot. (Top left) Basically a door bell LOL.

I've been wanting to do this as well. I thought I had read somewhere that the roll control can interfere with ABS?

Only if you have traction control. There is a work around but I don't know it. Maybe PM BADMERC if you have T/C, he just had a local shop do his.

The work around is to use 2 line loc modules, I did mine off the ABS pump outlets for the front wheels, and yes, I had to cycle the module with a scan tool to bleed the brakes.

I don't have t/c so I only need one solenoid from the sound of it. Just need to find somebody local that will help me bleed/cycle the ABS. Thanks for the input and sorry for the minor high jacking

More info on this, please. Does that use the power steering pump to power brake the master cylinder instead of engine vacuum? Do you have forced induction?

05-17-2013, 02:06 PM
Yes, it uses the PS pump. And yes, you might say it is blown. Lol

My friend Steve said he would do other hydro-boost conversions if anyone wanted it done. Almost a bolt-in, but not quite. Just a little work to get it to connect to the factory brake pedal. Mine came from an 03 Mustang donor.
Yeah, it's a 4.6 32V.

So whats the deal on installing a line lock in an 04 Marauder, one or two line locks?
1 Bad Merc
08-22-2013, 04:16 PM
Just one from my understanding. They have the tc like the 300b's in 2003 so I expect it should be the same.

Hahaha! Workin' on that.
Thru my old steer tires on the back to burn em up but the ABS did not like smaller tires on rear.

Is this a difficult install? I was planning on shopping Summit Racing on my way to MV11. Need new K&N filter screens. Maybe I could get their kit and have it done before heading home.

Depends on your skill level and tool availability.
(Conservative numbers)
30 min to fab, drill, paint & install bracket/mount valve
60 min to prep/install fittings, form/cut/flare lines
15 min bleed brakes
30 min to run wires
30 min to prep/place/wire/install switch
60 min buffer for associated b/s
