Where is the grounding strap from engine to chassis located on 1999 Lincoln Town Car Exec?

There are grounding problems on 1999 to 2003 Lincoln Town cars causing alternators not to charge properly and running batteries down. We replaced 3 alternators and 1 battery. We checked all ground straps on chassis/frame/engine and couldn't find exact location of ground strap that was defective. Also checked fuses and made sure all switches off in car especially heater/AC. Improvised by installing a new ground strap from engine ground to chassis/battery ground. System now charging properly, alternator output 13.5v to 14.5+v.
