Default 2003crank sensor cam sensor shut down while driving hard start or no start

Current Codes:
P0016: Crank-Cam position correlation
P0339: Crankshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Intermittent
P0300: Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected

Past Code:
P0344: Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Intermittent (Bank 1 or Single Sensor)

Depending on the day I might get the Cam or Crank code. The original symptoms were rough idle, engine won't go over ~3000 RPM (I believe due to "limp" mode which goes away once codes are cleared).

Here is what I have done to try and solve the issue:
-Replaced the Cam Position Sensor (aftermarket part)
-Replaced the Crank Position Sensor (aftermarket part)
-Cleaned the Throttle Body
-Replaced the Cam Position Sensor again (Mopar part)
-Replaced IAC (aftermarket part)
-Replaced TPS (aftermarket part)
-Cleaned all the body/block grounds I could find.

I am not sure what to do next, all the other ideas I have found so far are expensive and some seem unlikely. I wanted to check here before I took it to a mechanic or attempted to replace parts costing $100+. Here are some other ideas I have found online after lots of searching:
-Flash PCM
-Replace PCM
-Problem with the cog wheel the crank sensor reads (not sure why this would cause an "intermittent" issue though.
-Replace vehicle wireing.

This issue has been driving me crazy for a while now, if anyone has an idea I would appreciate the help!
I had all those problem in 2003 Dakota 4.7 quad cab bucking engine hard start crank and cam codes out the wazoo I fixed my issue today my starter wire was lose and stud broke so I fixed starter and made sure all was tight cus it was grounding out on starter case and changed both crank and cam sensors and and idle air control and solve all of it and no check engine light is on no codes bump key to start now hope it helps cus it has been a long 8months trying to figure it out dying on side of road so hope it helps

Is there a tone ring on the camshaft the sensor reads? Or is it a magnet like suggested above?

Is the wiring good?

What problems are you having Ben? You don't post a question just make a statement.

What brand sensors have you replaced them with?
