I am cleaning up some as I complete final wiring. I am bending/heat shrinking the extra powered wires for potential future needs, but what do people do with all the extra little grounds running with these circuits I will not be using - wrap them up too?

I currently have fuse array and flashers grounded to chassis, strap from PS motor mount to chassis, strap from trunk chassis to battery, dedicated 2AWG run from DS motor mount to battery.

Thanks! I think I just need cooling install after wiring to consider a start up attempt.

If the ground is right there w/ the power leads I'd probably wrap them together. My concern is that later your pull out one of those wrapped up circuits to use it and you have the power leads but who knows where a ground might be if needed for the circuit to work. So any grounds kind of off by themselves, I'd ground them.
