1988 Ford F-250 decision

alright asking some goo advice on my truck I've posted on here before under natcox012. My 88 is acting up 460 4x4 auto.

First thing ran fine yesterday had plenty of fluids because has rear main leaking, front timing chain and front trans seal all dripping but kept up on. Hauled a load of dirt yesterday no probs. well go to fire up today and hear fast clicking no start. So naturally I think soleniod cause it goes through them like candy. Starter, alternator, and battery are just a couple years old if that. As far as the trans leak I have all parts to do the manual zf5 swap just haven't done it yet.

Any suggestions on what should be done. Have quite a bit of money in it already.

Fast clicking when trying to start is almost always a dead battery or a bad battery/starter/ground connection.
