Talking Grounds

Everyone knows you can never have enough grounds on a vehicle.

I'm working on my 68 step side and have added some grounds. Here is what I have so far. I have about 200' of this grounding strap that a friend gave me so I'm using it! As I go toward the rear I will be adding more to it right know I just have the cab on the frame.
The ground strap in the first picture is connected to the heater box now with the stud in the bottom corner.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Grounds

Great job.
That will really help cut down on electrical issues.

Did you use corrosion paste on the connections?

I use something like this in the link below for dis-similar metals.

No but maybe I should. I will look and see what I can find. In fact I think I have some stuff from work that may work. Thanks I'll have to look and see.
