Dumb . . . Really dumb question

I'm just about finished with the tranny and started to put the end cap on when I realized I didn't take a picture of where the ground strap goes . . . . . I know its on the passenger side, but which stud does it go on????

Help would be much appreciated at this point since I am almost finished.

TIA

Can't quite remember, but it's either that one or the next one clockwise (as depicted). It doesn't really matter since either should be close enough for the strap to attach at the other end.

an extra long ground strap to the starter bolt won't hurt..

You have it on the correct bolt per the factory shop manual. Jim

change the orig strap once in a great while.

I like electrical overkill, and back ups.

I also use Neverseize Loctite Graphite-50 for spark plugs. If you read the copper can you can't find spark plugs for suggested use.. you can find that on the Graphite-50 can info..

computer gizmo wiring is another story.
