Re: Irritating electrical problem

Regarding ground wires from rad support to rest of world, my truck hasn't had an external voltage regulator for the past 30 years. However, I'm getting around 14 volts to the headlights, so bolts must be making a good ground. But I still think a ground strap to the frame is a good idea. Grounding is something that's almost never overkill!
