Finishing tomorrow--couldn't get to any of it today. Had to get a couple of new ring terminals for my ground wires--making a new place to ground with 5/16 bolts.
It's kinda a fun job. I need to do something like this for a living lol.

Come fix mine when you are done. Got all the stuff, just hate lying on the ground. You could do it standing....

JMO forget about using the frame for a ground on a boat trailer(really any trailer), run a ground wire and dump the connectors and soldier all wire to wire connections, grease the light plug connections, with led's you should never have another problem as long as you keep the water out of the led's,, want the ultimate setup run all new marine grade wire,, jmo for a trouble free long lasting setup,, in most cases much easier to work on it with the boat off of the trailer,,, hope this helps

I do agree that is the best way for sure but don't have the time right now fish too much :D This is a 22 year old Ranger so it has marine wiring and original lights. The only reason I'm changing all is due to the right tail light went out :D
