after talking to my brother I also found out he didnt tie down his battery .. SO im guessing from it sloshing back and forth has ruined it,, if that can ruin a battery..

Sorry for the delay,

this will not help the batt, but is not a normal problem unless some on the cells are low (you can see the top of the plates dry in some of the cells).
good luck with the motor, let me know how you get on.

I'm almost 99.9% positive it's your starter. same thing happened to my buddy's 96 talon. it'll stop starting via jump here pretty soon and then you REALLY need to get a starter.
