Starter Solenoid Wiring

I just picked up a new starter solenoid from Texas industrial electric and swapped out the old solenoid with it. When I installed the starter back into the humvee and turn the switch to RUN, I get power lights but when trying to start it.... nothing. Doesn't make a sound, so I contacted Texas industrial electric and they said it's an insulated base solenoid and I need to add a ground wire.

The position he said to add the ground wire, is the same place that wire 74A and 74B connect to, which that probably wouldn't work if those are positive wires. Where should the ground wire be added? I attached a reference pic of the starter and solenoid.
