Default Stalling/Dead Battery

Long story short - Went to start the jeep after a day and a half of not driving it, and the battery was dead. Completely drained. Didn't see any obvious reason why, I figured I'd just look for that another time. A pretty new battery. Well, I drove it after jumping it for about 20 minutes, parked it, and went into the college dorms for about 10 minutes. I came out, it started up fine, no issues. Drove the mile back to my apartment, and as I was rolling into a parking spot, it stalled on me. Just cut out completely. It started up fine, drove around fine, though the idle seemed a little low. Any ideas?

Other known issues: Exhaust is bouncing on transmission crossbar. I replaced the transmission mount last weekend, and it solved the problem for about 3 days, and then was back, bad as ever.

: Starter motor sometimes needs a good tap or two with a hammer before it will work.
