Thumbs down truck wont start

iv got a 96 dodge ram 1500 4x4. A couple days ago i started up my truck drove about 30 ft put it in to park it started sputtering and died and hasnt started since. it will turn over so i thought it might be fuel pump or somthing related to the fuel system so i replaced the pump. still wont start now i figured out im not geting any spark at the plugs iv replaced plugs, wires, coil, distributor cap, rotor thats in the distributor, with no results. All the fuses and relays that i could locate were ok. I dont know what else to do so if anybody has any ideas it would be helpful thanks

crank sensor is on the passenger side on the bellhousing. basically put ur hand on the bellhousing right behind the passenger side valve cover, and u will feel it, its connector and wires normally route up over the trans and hook up on the driver side behind the driver side valve cover. its only got 2 bolts holding it into place, might need a mirror and flashlight to see it. but its there trust me.
