Locations of the 5 ground straps?

Does anyone have a list of where the 5 ground straps are located on a '70?

I know there's one near the starter to the chassis, and another underneath from the cab to the frame, but I can't find the other three, which leads me to believe they weren't replaced when the cab and bed were removed to be painted.

So close to getting this truck on the road...

Re: Locations of the 5 ground straps?

The Factory Assembly Instruction Manual only shows two, one from each valve cover to the firewall on a V-8. This search was conducted using the spreadsheet that members here made.

Do you have a link to the spreadsheet? I didn't see a mention of it in the major thread about ground straps.

Note: That manual has no page numbers, since they expected to make insertions during the model year. At least I think that that is why. Crazy way to do it, since there are many schemes for incorporation of superseding information.
