Default wont start

so i went out to my jeep to leave and turned it over half and everything lit up then went to turn it over and just got a click, so i had my buddy jump in the drivers seat and turn it over while i was under the hood and the click was coming from the fuse box so thought it was the starter relay so i bought another one of those and put it and the same thing happened. could it be anything other then the starter just being shot? it has been having trouble starting the last few months.

K.I.S.S....

1. Remove and Clean the connections at the battery if this doesn't help

2. Refresh All Grounds under the hood. If this doesn't help

3. Have Battery Load Tested, just because you have 12is Volts, doesn't mean it has enough amps to supply the demand. Replace if needed.

4. Done out of order,test/ replace relay.

5. Have starter checked, tap on it with a screwdriver, if it turns over, replace it. Also, you can take it to the auto parts store to be tested.
