It won't matter which truck battery you hook to, they are wired in parallel. There is no isolator between them. You would want an isolator between your heavy duty charge wire and the the truck. I would use a voltage controlled relay, also known as an automatic charge relay (ACR) Blue Sky makes a good one I've used a couple of times. The old timey diode based isolators will drop the charge voltage by .7 volts.
Before doing anything I would verify that your factory charge wire is hooked up and working. Fixing that may be all you need to do. Yes, it's a limited charge but it may be enough depending on your usage.
