[slapmaster 10+ year member]

well check where your stock ground is, mine went right to the frame. i do have my batt grounded to the frame and to the firewall. with the power your running, i would run the ground directly to the frame. where do you plan on grounding your amps? nothing really wrong with that location if you plan on running grounds up to the front too

 

[slapmaster 10+ year member]

well i'll find a frame ground too then. amps will be grounded in the back. their are two metal loops bolted to the floor of the van in the back for the cargo net. i think they are bolted into the frame.
