[QUOTE="Boogie Chillin, post: 16388095, member: 25529"] This is a good thread to ask a Nations alternator question. OP did a great job. I have a Nations I'm about to install. Is it proper to ground from the alternator mounting bolt to the battery for the engine ground, and battery to chassis at the ground point by the battery with a at the ground point by the front light for the chassis ground? And since both engine and chassis are connected at the battery with heavy gauge wire, is it necessary to add / upgrade the motor mount to chassis ground wire? From the videos, Mechman was different from the Nations and then there were some J2Fab big 3 vids where old wiring was stripped out of the loom. I'll have to dig into the loom to figure out what stays and what gets replaced. The direction do not mention grounding the alternator itself. Looks like the OP has the ground on the lower mounting bolt with the shim washer. BTW - They supply two 2mm washers now. Am I correct in thinking that these washers are only used on the lower mount point to shim one side of the alternator and not on both sides? Thanks... It's been a few months since I broke something, so I figured I'd do this during the pinko-pox.. [/QUOTE]
