my battery was already located to the rear b/c of the FMIC pipe. yea yea yea

I want to know how to keep the battery charged. i dont understand how the battery could be charging when the batterys negative is just grounded to the truck. what do i need to have the alternator charging the battery when the car is running?

here fishy fishy!!! LOL

you just need a power wire (large gauge) running from the alternator to the battery positive and the battery ground needs to be grounded to the chassis. cars run on DC current....which just needs to be grounded...alternating current (AC) is what's run in houses and so forth and actually loops back to the source.
