as long as transmission or engine is earthed well to chassis and battery and body is earthed to both as well an earth at the starter is unimportant

you still need to drop the down pipe for access
Mine had earth issues so I fitted new lead from battery to chassis, another lead from battery straight to one of the starter mounting nuts/bolts and another strap from drivers side chassis to the engine itself, never been any issues since, was a slow starter and always felt like battery/starter was on its way out and as both of them were new.

I had earth problems on my 110, I just put an extra strap from the transfer box to the chassis.

I just cleaned up the strap from the battery to engine & chassis and it;s been fine since.
