today I relocated my battery from the engine bay to up Under the bed. Main reason was to clean up engine bay. When the battery was under the hood, the negative cable of the battery was connected to both the frame and the engine. Now, if I wanted to do the same for the relocated battery, I would have to buy a really long negative cable to run from the bed all the way back to the engine. Battery cable is expensive. So I was thinking of having one short cable ground the battery to the frame, and then another cable in the engine bay ground the engine to the frame as well. Would this be ok, or would this be a bad way to ground everything?
