Interesting theory
"The point I am making is that this charge unless diverted must pass through the truck pivot point in order to reach the ground and this high voltage can cause electrostatic erosion or in some cases, very high temperatures."
Would'nt the static charge also cross via the truck tilt actuator,electrical conduits and hydraulic lines, also ditto for the other leg ?
