Don't replace parts without actually troubleshooting, it can get expensive. First, make sure battery is fully charged, doublecheck all battery cables for corrosion and make sure they are tight. If all cables are good and tight, bypass starter relay and see if it cranks, if it does, check voltage on small terminal of starter relay when ignition key is turned to start position, if you do, replace relay, if you still don't have voltage on relay start terminal, trace back to ignition switch or fuse box
