I can not see it very well but if the wire is dead headed I would remove. Someone was grounding a wire for troubleshooting or an accessory grounding point?
If you have not heard yet grounding wires are very important on all vehicles but even more on the CUCV's. If you have not checked and...
There are no free lunches with owning large trucks, tractors. The fact that the truck was not altered abused or as I like to say "molested" is the biggest plus for me. Now you can alter, change, improve the basic truck as bought, and with the best knowledge any Forum can provide.

Minor problems can be a warning sign for larger...
