Default starter issue, doesnt crank

My starter began to act up. I took it to kragen, bench tested it, and it was fine, gear extends and spins.

I reinstall the starter and all it does it click once. I turn the key again, and it would jsut click once. Maybe after trying it a few times (20 or so tries), it would start. This is a new reman. starter.

Now i'm guessing either the starter relay or the ignition switch needs to be replaced.

battery is fine, starter is new. is this a wiring issue now?

Can you get a rachet and socket and turn the engine over by hand? Have you checked your battery?
