First thing is to check for error codes.
Then check electrical grounds perhaps since you described the whole truck shutting down.
What is the condition of the battery? What about the alternator? Is it charging properly?

Had battery and alternator tested both tested good when try to scan it for error codes it dont read at all have checked all ground locationd that i can find thats why idk where to start cant get no code scanner to read anything
With sudden cutouts it may not even record any codes. For the ECU it's like the key has been turned to "off".
Christine's advice is sound.
Battery
Connections (including grounds)
What comes to mind in addition:
Theft protection or alarm
Ignition switch
I'm moving the thread to the lighting & electrical section.

Been trying to find a wire harness diagram was gonna cut out the harness and rebuild it i work at wire place with all the wire and terminals i need but dont know where everything plugs in and hooks up at
Dont cut up your wiring harness. Check for loose connections perhaps main cables in the inst cluster. I read where one issue was loose solder points on the cluster itself. I just resolved my starting issue with a new dist cap after trying fuel test and new battery. Cheapest parts fixed my issue. See coil wire is loose and if cap has any moisture in it clean it with stsrting or electrical connection cleaner and scrape off any carbon build up or replace all together

Have been looking for loose connections and havent been able to find any yet was thinking bout trying dist cap but it starts and runs fine till cuts out so figured dist cap was ok same with the ignition but thanks for the advice doing wire harness was gonna b last option
