From my experience the ground loop (engine noise)is usually caused from the signal equipment. Stereo, EQ etc.
I hope this makes sense.
I hope to get back on the truck next week.
So if your stereo gets ground from the cab, and you have that big ground connected, will that cause issue? Or did I miss your point? My mustang always had engine noise in the stereo especially when I had my phone plugged into stereo with aux cable and also charging via cigarette lighter at same time. I don't want to make the same mistake in my truck but I don't really know what caused this...
