B. Or cranks over strong but won't start.
Sounds from your description above it's not a starting issue, but a cranking issue.
If your batt and alternator are strong, then my guess would be you've got a bad connection between the battery and the starter. Make sure all battery cables are good and clean and grounded tight to the engine.
If that's not it, could be bad starter relay or relay wiring. The relay sits between the red battery cable and the starter, although for that truck it's probably mounted piggyback on the starter itself.
