    A Mico-lock is what they used on a lot of heavy equipment back in the day. It's essentially a valve that mechanically maintains pressure on the calipers without any electrical input. Some of the cheapo linelocks have solenoids. With those, when you lose electrical, your e-brake cuts out.
    Part number 02-640-125 on page 3 from here:

    The mico-lock supposes that you also have hydraulic pressure, so it's not a mechanical e-brake, but it's good for parking and the like. As such you have to plumb it in between your MC and the calipers. See pic of the control here in red:

    Thanks that looks like it may be an easier install than swapping my driveline drum from the 200 over to the 205. Fisherman

    Doug has a lock on his brakes. He used it to full advantage at the FE. If you plan on getting stuck on the side of some hills, put one on.
