Cables are easy man... Main grounds are of course the neg battery cable to block... Battery to fender... Back of head to firewall... Add one from same engine block point to passenger shock mount...
Recommend oreillys new batteries like optima but better and cheaper...

Oh yea! was going to put a hitch on my jeep, but now that i think of it... don't see why i need it. I have all my companies work trucks at my disposal... all much more capable of handling any job where a hitch is needed. Anyone see a reason to put one on anyways? Which leads to my next question. Want a good brush guard any suggestions? (would like affordable suggestions...)

I had to cut the flag bolt off on the upper control arm, uni body side (changing bushings). I don't have to get another flag bolt do I? Just find a regular bolt?

you should be fine with a standard nut, just may be harder to position it / get a wrench on it
