Mostly that's true Greg. So when doing a ground off one has to make sure that grounds are good. During our ground off I have added a (green) ground wire to the wiring harness I made, incorperated a heavy braded ground wire to the engine/transmission, radiator frame, drivers inner fender (where i have a bank of relays), that inner fender to truck frame as well as cab floor, gas tank and bed to the truck frame. I have coated all these with NCP-2, an antioxidation/corrosion paste, mostly because they were/are bare metal. I also make sure that the threads that hold the grounding bolts (bare metal), are clear of paint. When not doing the extra grounding you must/should scrap away some areas that get bolted together and hope (usually they do) bond or make contact. Years cause rust and corrosion also the nuts loosen that cause the bond to fail.
That's why it's best to check your ground first during an electrical problem. Then go figure out why something isn't working.
