Stalling while driving

You got the right ones, that motor should be running great. It makes no sense why it threw a p0153 and p0133. Maybe it at some point will throw a different code.
It really is running great! Really smooth! Hasn't been this smooth since I've owned it.

Checked the sensors, and they're where they are supposed to be.
Didn't stall this morning, but did later on in the day. I guess it's time to start replacement of all the other sensors, leading up to pre-cat and PCM replacement. I'll stumble upon it sooner or later.
 
I caved and took the Jeep to a reliable auto shop on 09/27. They had it, and drove it, for two days and it never stalled (ain't it always the way). Good news is that it hasn't stalled ever since they had it. The mechanic and owner said they did nothing to it, other than hook it up to a scanner (no codes found). They said they didn't reset the computer either. I'm more confused than ever. Right now I'm enjoying it, but I still wonder what caused all this, and am wary that it might happen again.
 
CEL came on two days after the last post. Code P0153 also came up. Hasn't shut off yet.
 
I recently replaced the O2 sensors in The Muddog. On the way back to Auto Zone to return the tool, got a CEL and (I think) P0153. Sensor wasn't plugged in tight.
I'll try it, but it was stalling both before and after I replaced all the O2 sensors. Check engine light still on, still throwing the P0153 code, but not stalling.

Just an update. About a month ago the stalling and O2 sensor codes finally subsided when a P-0431 (cat converter bank 2) popped up. I replaced the cats with Flowmaster cats and unplugged the battery to reset the computer. For the last month there have been zero codes and zero stalling. I just wonder if that was the problem the whole time?

Did it fix it?
