May want to try a starter solenoid. On my 7.3 onetime, I replaced the batteries, the cables, then the starter. Come to find out, it was the solenoid on the fenderwell. The get pitted and burnt over time. Its about a 12 dollar part that in the long run I paid about 800 dollars chasing. Its always the simple stuff that bites you. Good Luck.
