Alternator . Does it feel like its an electrical failure, or something like a fuel problem?

That's funny

I wonder if the batts are dead because they cranked it for so long, or if they were dead when it died

I would start by replacing the batteries, these trucks have to have a certain Voltage to run correctly
If that doesnt work you can always take them back

well we have batterys here im a jd dealer so we are in the process of replacing them right now i will post back up after that gets done thanks guys

update is new batterys and it fired up but runs like crap shakes really bad and the water in fuel light came on so next is fuel filters and go from there

Good news. I would check t be sure your alt is charging anyway, for insurance purposes if nothing else
