Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to do this. I have them all except #3, looks like I have another project for tomorrow. I have been wondering if I had all these for awhile. Thanks again.

not to get entirely off topic.. but just recently on my pickup the #2 on the list burnt from one end to the other and caused the diodes to burn up in my alternator.. i had never messed with any of the wires and neither did the PO.. but could this have been caused by water getting in the connector right beside the airbox????

Without the a/c bracket it is an M12 (14mm head) I'm not exactly sure on the thread pitch it's a 1.00 or a 1.25.....I would think the one to the A/C bracket would be the same to save on cost....maybe someone else can confirm as I don't have A/C.

The pictures help alot, im in the process of making new ground wires for my 86 4Runner, im using 4 gauge battery cable as compared to the very small stock ground wires.

I thought 4 gauge was stock
well, for the battery terminals anyway
you're making all of the grounds 4 gauge?

Im upgrading all of the ground wires to the larger size because i just got a 160 AMP alternator, im also upgrading the output wire from the alternator to the battery to 4 gauge because the stock wire is only 8 gauge and would probably melt and short out with the extra power going through it.

Other then #4 I don`t have any other grounds you have pictures of.
I do have one to the body to one of the inner fender bolts The other goes to one of the M10 bolt holes on the right side of the engine towards the front.
I have no problems on all my Toyota Vehicles with the grounds like this.
