Braided Ground strap
I have an F150 with a 5.4 and want to change the ground strap I bought a braided one from the store and it says it’s 4 gauge. I can’t find anywhere that says what gauge I need. Will this work?

It will work fine. The braided grounding straps are for RFI (electrical noise) suppression purposes, not general purpose grounding. The general purpose grounds are going to be conventional stranded cables.
