No crank

Hey guys went out to start my truck yesterday which is a 2004 F350 6.0 Diesel. It wouldn't crank over so of course I tried to jump start it and it fired right up. Went to town while I was there got 2 new batteries and put them in went to start truck and again nothing but will only start qhen jumped even with new batteries I'm guessing there is a grounding out issue any suggestions on where to start thanks

Have the alternator bench tested, once you jump it and have it running what are the battery volts? If they stay at or below 12 after the glow plugs time out ( up to 120 seconds ) then the alternator is toast.
