[QUOTE="blackgeltabs, post: 46932, member: 541881"] quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You see in a perfect world that might just possibly be true. But there things like rust and corrosion that can get in the way -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- you clean ALL connections no matter if they are rusted or not. solves that problem. No No, I mean rust spots through out the body of the car and in the under carriage, they create resistance when the current is on its travel path to the battery. quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You see all ground has to go back to the battery anyways, your car sitts on 4 rubber tires, thats why they say cars are safe in lightning storms. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- no one was ever saying that the ground is an earth type No but I am saying that it travels back to the battery, therefore haveing the battery in the trunk would BE to YOUR ADVANTAGE. quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A couple of my automotive teachers have asked "why dont you run a ground wire straight to the battery for all of your amp thingies, instead of grounding them to the rusted a$$ body" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- first if they knew anything about automotive electronic they would know ALL circuit use the body as a ground.
