Severe bucking and jerking

Hey guys . For the past couple weeks my trucks been seeming to have a bit of a stumble when taking off , sluggish performance etc . I checked the engine bay to look for cross firing but didn't see any , but when I looked through the fender well I can see all the plugs lighting up , faintly but noticeable . So I changed the plugs and wires and it still does it ? I put on an msd ignition box I had from an old off-road truck maybe that's the problem ? Anyways last night while driving on the highway light on the throttle going down hill the truck starts shaking violently like the tires were squares it took a lot to control and pulled off the road . Nothing unusual to see , continued on my way without doing that again . Now I'm a little freaked about driving it on the highway and have no clue where to start . I have no codes showing
