funny vibration

My '96 XL 4x4 3.0L Ranger has a funny engine vibration at around 2500-3000 RPM's. All cylinders seem to be firing. Could this be a vacuum leak of some sort? If so hiow the heck do I isolate it? I've replaced the IAC, Camshaft position sensor, Camshaft synchronizer, MAF sensor, and the DPFE all in the last month or two, and still can't get the darn problem figured out. Could it be something as simple as the EGR? I've also replaced the plugs/wires/coil..etc.

Please help

Why don't you put a vacuum guage on it? Could be something as simple as that.
