What kind of truck? Need some details, we can"t see it through the Internet.
Why did you change the fuel pump and FPDM without troubleshooting? Did you know for a fact that you had no fuel pressure? If so, did you check the inertia switch? Did you do any electrical testing?
If your idea of troubleshooting is to shotgun parts at it, it would be better if you just had it towed to a shop.

Install a test lamp at the inertia switch in the passenger side kick panel. You will need to make a VERY careful observation to see if the fuel pump circuit is loosing its power that causes the engine to stall vs the power being dropped because the engine stalled.
Once you KNOW which half of the circuit is at fault, it allows you to focus on the most likely suspects.
This, of course, presumes that you intend to troubleshoot the issue instead of guessing.

Sometimes, a human brain and some test tools and techniques must be used.
