i relocated my battery to my trunk and then when i went to start it nothing happend so i diconnected everything and put it back to stock and hooked a jump box up to it and then it would only try to crank and then it would just click and not start. then i got it to start so i took the jump box off then it just died and from then on i couldnt even get it to crank or start if anyone has any ideas as to what it could be please let me know

It sounds like you either blew something... flat out killed your battery or you didnt hook up/ ground your wires correctly. Double check everything.
