Bobby k Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Would a 1962 b61 be positive or negative ground. 6 volt or 12 volt batteries, 24 volt starter,I guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian L Blaylock Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Unless it’s been changed it would be positive ground the most common electric system is a 24 volt starter the rest of the truck being 12 volts using a series parallel switch and 4 6 volt batteries 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve s. Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Brian is correct. I would add that if your truck still has the 12/24-volt system and you are going to buy batteries, you can use 2 -12 volt batteries instead of the 4- 6 volts.

609albert Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 yes the 2-12 volt batteries is the best way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby k Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 Thanks to all who responded, great info, I think there is 4 sixes in there now with the s p switch. Working on fixing rusty floors and lower doors,would love to find a drivers side front fender,cost more to fix I think, and the removable panels between the fenders and hood, there missing. Thanks again to everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 That’s the way they all came 4-6,s but yes these guys are correct when the batteries go out you’re better off to put 2 big 12,s … bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
