does it need an isolated ground or can you not just use the cab/chassis ground?

There is only one wire from the switches. Just use a ground to the cab/chassis - wherever you find a place which makes a good ground point. The wires from the upfitter switches are just power on/off. Upfitter Switches 1 and 2 have a higher fused amperage with larger gauge wires. I have used these switches for accessories before and I also use one as a high idle too.

If all else fails, get out a test light and do a quick test if your unsure.
