Even if you can't get power to both at the same time, I think that you can verify the last thing, now. If you power the solenoid, you want to see that the little rod with the gear moves into place the way it should. If you have that, and the starter motor spinning, all should be good.

I see. I took my starter apart to check it when I thought it was not working and it was not terrible, but it also helped to have another set of hands available to get everything lined up for reassembly. Maybe at this point you just want a new starter but if you're interested, it can likely be fixed.
Good luck, I'm glad to hear you got to the root cause.

Damn it, I swapped out the Solenoid, and now i know the starter works, installed and still no crank!
Jumped the starter directly by touching the + on the solenoid and it did crank the car. So apparently that wire is not getting power. But it looks ok. The clicking I was hearing is the relay. I was able to put my hand on the relay while turning the key,
:-(
