There is a power lead from the starter soleniod that goes to the fuse panel inside the truck(to power everything). Make sure it's on the BATTERY side of the soleniod. Sometimes people loose track and put it on the starter side and that won't allow anything to work.
If that is connected properly, then you need to trace power to the fuse panel. Anything? I think there is a fuse link in that wire at the soleniod(you'll see a black lump in the wire), and could be blown. Have to cut that out and replace it with new one(available at any parts store).
Once you get power to the fuse panel there will be more checks to follow if you still don't get any starter.
