If you think it's a miss and not a vibration I would check fuel pressure, pull codes, tune up as needed. To check the cat, put a vacuum gauge on the intake, bring it up to 2500rpm for a few minutes, if the vacuum drops you MAY have a cloggedcat/exhaust.

I managed to squeeze myself under the truck this morning and boy do I( regret it
the rear dif is leaking and the gear box is leaking to i put my hand on the Driveshaft and tried to wiggle it and it Seems pretty Tight I suspect all the leak action will have to be dealt with and then the vibration will go away
