Battery drain?

[Rangerluis]

After fixing one issue another presents itself. We ( my brother lorenzo816 and uncle Gary)replaced bushing on track bar and the death wobble went away.

After replacing the battery and alternator my battery keeps dying. We disconnected the winch completely and over night the battery still is about dead and would not start.

Next we disconnected the ground cable from the battery terminal. Attached a tester clamp and the needle of the tester on the ground cable the light came on. We pulled every fuse and the test light never went out.

Next step we are going to do is pull the positive off the starter and see if that is the issue.

Any other suggestions?

Just a wild guess, could a diode, or something in the alt., be stuck? And how would that happen other than > got dropped or zapped

Internal short in the starter.

I'll take a look at the starter. Thanks.
