This weekend I saw a lock that went between the parking brake and shift lever in the SS. I just saw the same one in the picture gallery. Can someone please tell me where can I get one.
Thanks, Jamesgn

Here's what you're looking for, but there are better prices on ebay than this if you can find the right seach wording. You'll also need too modify the brake handle cover.

I was looking for a link to something I have seen on the forum that look like a big set of hand cuffs. but as you can guess my search on Amazon for locking cuffs made me blush.

Ok they are called Street Cuffs

Much less embarrassing search

I have had the handcuffs for about 2 years and the rear wheel lock

Are these the ones that made you blush Mitch? It must have been the color I guess

I tell you what brother - just search locking cuffs - I am sure nothing there will make you blush - but you know me I am timid and easily embarrassed.

Same here. As a set, they make it pretty damn tough for anyone to just walk up and push my Sling down the road. I also have the Scorpion SRi-900 security system installed. Of course, if someone wants it bad enough, they would find a way.........but I'm pretty sure 99.8% of the thieves just don't have the nads, or resources to pull it off, and the other .2% are busy steeling far more expensive items and wouldn't give my Sling a second glance.

I know. You probably blush at Sonics when you order a CORNDOG too

Also if you are using the hand cuffs pull into the parking spot and cut the front wheels hard left or right. It would be very hard to pull the SS out of the parking spot with a car parked on both sides even if they used a floor jack.

I saw the cuffs you were talking about on Amazon, they are Master locks. When I read the reviews several said the same thing that the keys and tumblers were cheap and broke on them.

I use a club like steering wheel device.....
In the driveway I use it and this wrapped around the torsion bar/a arm and through the driver side wheel.

Also have the scorpion...

I thought about getting that E-brake shift lock, but it just seemed too easy for someone to remove the shift knob to remove the lock so I got master lock street cuffs instead, with these I can lock the steering wheel to the frame with the wheels turned all the way to one side - cant even roll it in a straight line and it also makes it very hard to even sit in it
-
I wonder how hard it would be to just cut one link of the chain?
I have both the SRi9000 and the brake handle to shifter lock. We put on the lock then run a cable lock under it and through both chin bars on our helmets. We find people that wants to mess with anything back off when they hear a few chirps. The remote rattles in my pocket which sends muscle movement to my gun hand. I would probably find the bad guy in just the right position fiddling with the shift knob pin to make a perfect hole in one shot. Just 18 times if you know what I mean.

The other downside to the shifter-brake lock is it won't work with the smoother aftermarket shift handles. Mine slides right off.

With my heavy chain going through the front wheel, it would be dragging if someone was trying to move the SS. A steering wheel lock is good, i always use it. If all 3 wheels can freely turn it’s a little easier to move...

Edward Neal have you had any issues with the key and lock on this setup? I looked at purchasing one, but the reviews were so bad on the locks wearing out, I decided against it. Thought I would ask a actual user and get your review.

2 years with no problems. They stay in the SS with one side latched all of the time and I use them only when I am at strange motels/hotels. Which worked out to be around 10 times last summer
