Stock Injectors..

I noticed my truck is kinda starting to act a little skittish when i stomp on the pedal...It has about 125K on it and as far as I know, the injectors are original. When is a good time to change the injectors?

As soon as you can afford to replace them with some performance ones!!

I'd be looking at the lift pump or injection pump before I went after the injectors.

The fuel filter is the cheapest place to start, but if that dosen't do it then I have to agree with phox. My aunts tractor and my truck both ran way better after the fuel filter change out's.
