What would cause a 2001 F150 ford to idle very rough,and when drive selected?

I replaced spark plugs and wires for a check engine light;good,then the fuel pump,fuel filter,air filter,

the R.H. Catalytic convertor on drivers side was red,I replaced it.There is a sound like clink coming from Muffler,when the engine is at Idle; ?
