Need starting help

I have a 68 bronco with a 77 302 engine,

So i replaced the starter yesterday, truck started repeatly with no trouble, i went mudding and then it decided to not turn on again. I clean every connection perfectly and every ground however when i turn the key the solenoid clicks but no starter. I also checked with another battery

I can not jump start the bronco but i can rolling bump start it. please help me

Take one lead of your jumper cable and put one end on pos batt and touch the other on the starter side of starter relay. If starter doesn't attempt to turn, starter or cable to starter is bad. If it does, the starter relay went bad. New starters go bad too.
