Help with Mysterious Problem

[Big_THanks]

Ok so long story short the other day my car wouldnt start. I assumed battery and placed a yellow top in it. It started but the next day was just clicking (the starter) so I replaced the starter and it started right up. Now a few hours later it's just clicking again. The battery is charged and the starter is good. I even replaced the 100amp battery fuse. I am at a loss as to what is causing the problem.

You could replace the connector cables that connect at the battery poles if they are corroded. I had to do that on my pickup.

I jumped it yesterday but today it's like it's too dead to jump off.

Forgot to mention I did that already as well.

If you can, why not upgrade to a Quest alternator while you're at it?

I would but I can barely afford the 175 for the regular one. After all I just put a new starter and battery in yesterday.

Nope. I haven't even had it off road for a couple months. I think it's just gone bad.
