Willys earth bonding

Post by cogenhoe » Fri Nov 17, 2017 9:26 am

Hi

Does anyone have a diagram as to where the Earth bonding straps go?

I have the straps but just want to make sure I'm putting them where they are meant to go.

Thanks

Jerry

These pictures are fantastic. I have 2/3 of my bonding straps installed, but a few are left as I wasn't totally sure where they went, until now. Thanks for posting!

No problem. I have to thank the individuals who took the time to draw them out and those who took pictures. Alasdair Brass' jeep at http://jeepdraw.com/GPW_in_Detail.html
