CRANKS AND SOMETIMES IT WON'T. gO OUT LATER AND IT WILL CRANK. DOES THIS ABOUT EVERY 2 WEEKS. GOOD BATTERY AND NEW CABLES THat are connected tightly.It turns over and it acts like it's not getting fire or maybe fuel. Is there a ignition relay or something on this truck that could be the problem?
There is a relay, but I doubt that is the problem. You need to troubleshoot when it is not starting. Is the fuel pump running? Are you getting sparks?
The first link below shows the diagrams. The second one explains the troubleshooting steps.

I had this problem on my F250. I actually just ended up putting in a switch that by passes the relay and brings power directly to ignition. Turn off switch so you dont drain battery, and turn on switch to start car.

Hi, You did not mention what size engine is in this vehicle or mileage, but your starting issue sounds like it is related to the ignition control module. I am assuming the fuel pressure is ok at this point. The control modules are known to act up over time and can cause a driveability problem that your experiencing. The module will look like this;
