My friend has put 4 grand into this truck and replaced everything possible including computor, starter, coils, relays, whatever. I have all the reciepts so and i can see they've been replaced and I trust him. Rare yes, but I do. I bought the truck and would really like to get it running dependable as it runs great. The problem is you never know when all of a sudden it just wont do anything. No click. No nothing. I replaced the battery with a new one and whatever it is is not killing the battery. Several different mechanics have replaced everything i can think of on this truck and it still does the same thing. cranks great, then won't crank. I will take a pic under the hood in the morning and maybe someone will spot an obvious problem others have overlooked. Thank you.

If the battery and connections are good its gonna point to one of these ignition switch, clutch switch, starter relay and starter itself to include wiring
