I have no cab ground - apparently if there was one it burned off. Where should it be and what size wire should I use? Thanks


If you think you can or if you think you can't, either way you're right.

The shortest distance to the battery ground on the frame,which should be grounded well .You can not have too many ground straps(within reason).
Make sure they are clean and tight and use a little dielectric grease to eliminate/retard corrosion.


There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.

If you're running only standard accesories, 10 gauge wire will do. Now, if you add in a/c, a 1 megawatt stereo eek , and all the other goodies, I would go with no less than gauge 0. With most setups, a 6 or 8 gauge wire will be big enough.
