Default Electric fan factory harness

Could someone with factory fans and harness tell me where the ground from the harness goes. I laid mine out and it looks like it goes to the opposite side of the truck, down the frame towards the motor mounts. But the eyelet is too small to go on motor mount bolts. I know I can put it anywhere for a ground but the rest of the harness laid out very nice and want to keep it looking factory.

Mine went to the frame ground on the front below the core support, cant remember if it was on left or right frame rail. there was already a couple of ground wires going to the same spot...

The passenger side, on the front side of the core support frame mount.

My truck has some type of ground attached on the driver's side, so I duplicated that on the passenger side for the fan ground.

I'm interested because I could never find where that ground went to and I just attached it to where the sway bar mounts to the frame.

If you look at the core support frame mount, There is a small hole for a 5 or 6mm bolt with a 10mm head.

The passenger side had the ground from the fan harness going to it and the Driver side uses the ground from the battery cable and I believe another ground wire going to another part of the harness But I can recall what its for at the moment.

I have de pinned the factory fan harness and the ground from that specifically goes to the right side. The left might be the ground for the head lamp portion of the harness.
