Ground on 66 TB.

Post by 6T6-T »

I am having dificulty removing the bolt for the ground on 66 TB. Can't get a grip on the almost flat head (about the thickness of a $quarter) Any other good place to use for a ground that is more accessible ? Any thoughts or similar stories ?

Grind the head off, then use an extractor?

The original harness includes a small diameter ground wire to case of alternator. I’ve added a braided strap from frame to upper/large alternator mounting bolt.

To Georgemii. Thanks. After better positioning and lighting and a longer breaker bar I was able to free the bolt and cable. On to the next hurdle !
