The truck will run and drive fine for a while. It will stall while driving. It will start after sitting for a few minutes but it’s hard to start and sometimes will backfire when trying to start it after stalling. Replaced fuel pump and cam sensor. Slip light also comes on.

This sounds like you have a crankshaft position sensor that is not working correctly, but we should run the codes to see what comes up. here is a guide:
