Since the cabs originally did not have a ground strap going to the cab, I am guessing that the cab mount bolts provided the cab ground. Fast forward 60 years, where we epoxy prime and thoroughly paint every part to prevent rust, we may be losing adequate cab grounding. As far as "secrets" to putting in the gas gauge, it helps if you have extra elbows in your arms.  Carl
