hi guys,
I have put the engine back in on my 1500 fwd after repairing the chassis legs and sub frame. all done I cant remember where the positive battery lead runs. I have connected to the battery and starter but no obvious route comes to mind.
info or even a pic would help
regards stewart

Re: positive battery lead
Hiya stewart,
I have some pictures here for you:


My loom is zip-tied on along the base of the subframe, it's an 1850 but I can't imagine it will make much difference in this instance?
