92 f350 wont turn over

Hi guys im new to the forum and need some expert help. I have a 92 f350 diesel truck with a 5spd. This morning I went to start the truck and it turned over for a second then nothing. Thinking it was probably time for a starter and solenoid I replaced them. Still wont turn over. I have almost no power to the engagement post on the solenoid(voltmeter says between 3-6 volts). I just replaced the starter switch under the steering column to no avail. If i jump across the solenoid the truck starts right up. Im at a loss. Thanks for the help guys.

Check the neutral safety switch and the clutch safety switch. The juice to the solenoid goes from the starter switch thru those two and on to the solenoid. Also check for power at the two heavy yellow wires on the starter switch. These are hooked to fusible links that attach to the battery side of the solenoid, if those burn out there is no power to the key switch to start the truck. They should both have power all the time.
