No, get a bus bar (not sure of correct term) ground that , then ground all of your accessories to that. You can see mine below the fuse block.

So you ground the bus bar to the frame ?

No, nothing to the frame. Ground it to the pack. The buss bar is just a distribution device so that you’re not running a bunch of separate grounds to the pack.

There are quite a few threads on wiring reducers and accessories, some with good diagrams. Use the search bar and I’ll bet you’ll find it. I’ll try and see if I can get one of the ones I used.

Again, ground nothing ever to the frame. One of the guys here that actually knows what they’re talking about explained why once, but I don’t really remember the reason. I only know that it’s an absolute no no.
