Starting problem

Hi all, I need some help please. I have a 1990 F350 with a 7.3 in it.
Went to start it the other day and it cranked slow like a dead battery. I went and got the batteries charged and checked, put them back in and it fired up. drove it around for a few miles, came home, turned it off. went back out later and same problem.
took alternator off, had it tested. its good
had starter tested. its good
cables are all good
batteries are fully charged and good
what else could it be?
