It still dosent crank at the ignition? I would say you possibly have one more fuseable link bad or a starter relay on the fender....

ok. where is the sensor for the clutch and brake so the truck will only start when they are depressed?

also where does that small red wire going to the starter relay go? it just disappears into the harness.

I start my truck the same way you did yur with the jumper ..... But its located in the cab.... So I turn the key on push the button start the truck. Turn key off to stop I did that when I first got it .... Been doing that for 2 years now with no issues..... Also it could be the ignition swicth on the steering colum that's bad..... But the push button start is a no fail solution....
