ok wtf i changed all my glow plugs and bought new battery's. i go to try to start my truck and boom nothing i can hear my starter click but its like it doesn't have any power. i spent 300 bucks on new battery's cause my old ones where shot... could it be parasitic loss or could my starter have actually kicked the bucket. im really starting to hate this truck

try to take a hammer and tap the starter while trying to start it in the cab
if it get going you need to have you starter rebuild

Could just be the starter solenoid, it's not certain he'd need to rebuild the whole damn starter.

check your battery conections since you changed em out maybe theyre dirty or not tight enough. i know if the battery isnt conected completly the starter just mocks you.

pull the battery cables back off the new batteries, I bet there is some film or something on the battery face. new batteries usually come with some kind of coating on them, clean it up, and I bet it helps.
are you using the screwed terminals, or the posts?
