I think there isa good chance your right. I got under the truck after I started it and could here the catalytic converterrattling. I grabbed all the shrouds and held them tight to make sure it was the cat. It is coming from inside the cat. I will let you know how it turns out thanks a buch.

try pulling the O2 sensor out and see if it runs smoother. If it does then you are probably looking at the Cat.
