The clicking sound is your glow plug relay, the clicking is normal. And what you are jumping is a starter solenoid. If it starts when you bridge the terminals your starter is fine.

Im going to guess you have a tilt steering wheel, the connections from the key/tumbler to that solenoid get broken in the steering column frequently in 8th generation fords from the stress if being tilted/moved over the years. (think bending a paper clip enough times, it breaks)
