the rack itself won't be grounded to the vehicle,but all components attached to it will be grounded together.any problems with this and/or solutions.
what would the best way to isolate the components if need be?

It won't be grounded to the vehicle, and all the components will be grounded together? Maybe I'm missing something here, but how then will the components be grounded? Another location?

What exactly do you mean by isolating the components? Individual remote-line switching? or independant power and ground?

they will be grounded through my ground distro block directly to the vehicle.by isolating, i meant from the metal rack itself.the amps mount right through the metal heat sink(old orion sx series)and would be screwed directly to the metal rack.
