[QUOTE="stangman67, post: 7021177, member: 607236"] Topic for discussion, When adding a second (or third or fourth etc) battery in the rear of the car is it better to ground the batteries to the frame or do a run of negative from the front batt to the rear. I have read a few posts lately on various forums stating that it is necessary to ground the battery directly to the starting batt via a run of wire. My opinion is that grounding the battery in the rear to the frame is fine since everything is essentially grounded to the frame, ie making a closed loop. The resistance difference between a run of wire and the frame of the car is negligible. Other people's opinions? [/QUOTE]
