Hi, first time on this board but i was wondering if someone could give me some help. I just installed a whole new front clip on the pickup(fire wall forward) now when i try to turn on the car the battery drains right away, even with a jump pack on it too. when i put the breaks on it even drains the battery. any advice on what i can do? thanks

Put an ammeter between the battery terminal and the battery cable. See how much current its pulling. Then start removing fuses until the current drops, that will be the circuit that is pulling excessive current. Keep going until the current drain is well under 50 mA (0.050 amps).
