I left stock wire from starter to jump terminal. Ran 2 ga from there back to battery. And ran large 1ga from bat to frame, and frame to engine. But also needed extra grounds from engine to cab. These things are finicky with grounds

Re: Battery relocation

I can't resist a chance to plug something from my channel. My way of doing a battery relocation, using the stock mount from my '66.
