Ground Bond Strap Set 5 pieces

Ground bond straps for CJ-2A

Set of five braided copper ground bond straps for proper electrical earthing. These straps ensure a reliable connection between various body and engine components where paint, rubber or insulating materials prevent direct metal-to-metal earthing.

Material

Braided copper with soldered or crimped terminal eyelets

Set contents

5 bond straps, various lengths

Function

Electrical earthing body and engine

Application

CJ-2A and related civilian jeeps

Features

  • Set of 5 braided copper ground straps
  • Soldered or crimped terminal eyelets with mounting holes
  • Essential for properly functioning 6V electrical system
  • Connects insulated components to chassis/frame
  • Suitable for restoration projects

★ These bond straps are essential for a reliable 6-volt system. They connect engine components, generator, body and chassis at locations where rubber engine mounts or paint interrupt the earthing.

Application

Suitable for CJ-2A and related civilian jeep models with 6-volt system. The bond straps are installed between, among others: battery box to frame, engine mount to frame, generator to starter motor, bonnet to firewall, and other crucial earthing points where insulation prevents metal-to-metal connection.

Installation notes

Fit the bond straps with star washers to ensure good electrical connection through paint. Ensure all contact points are free from corrosion. Tighten mounting bolts firmly for optimal conductivity. If in doubt about correct locations: consult the original technical manual for your specific vehicle variant.

Compatibility

Please note: WWII military jeeps (MB/GPW) had extensive bond strap sets for Radio Interference Suppression. CJ-2A civilian models have a simpler earthing system. This set is specifically for civilian applications. Early CJ-2A models may have different configurations than late models. Check your vehicle beforehand for the number and length of straps required.

Historical context

Bond straps were introduced during WWII on military jeeps to suppress radio interference by keeping all metal panels at the same electrical potential. Civilian CJ models used a more limited set of straps, primarily for reliable earthing of the 6-volt electrical system.
