I found one from some aftermarket Mopar site online for $200. I cannot remember the name. Dealer charged me $100 to clone my stock ECM.
Thanks for the reply! I'm going to pass this onto my 'friend'.

Experience with these setups shows that the transformation is night and day, especially regarding responsiveness. Most see a jump of roughly 40 to 70 horsepower and a significant increase in torque, which helps immensely when navigating difficult terrain. Installing a full ecodiesel delete & exhaust kit along with a solid off-road tune typically results in a gain of 3 to 5 MPG. The engine definitely runs cooler and feels much less "choked" without the constant regeneration cycles dragging down efficiency.

while i like the idea of losing some of the Emissions complexity, some members are now reporting significantly higher wear metals in their Used Oil Analysis after tunes,.. so as with so many things J**p, it's a tradeoff.

do you need "more power" at the risk of increased internal engine wear? how much time do we actually spend at full throttle wanting for "more" ?
i know that even with 37s (properly regeared) i'm never anywhere near the bottom of the accelerator pedal on the trail.

As with anything, how you drive it matters. If the novelty of the throaty exhaust, pep in your step, or even lighting up the tires doesn't fade and you are always driving it hard, there will be more wear.

Where did you find the spare ECU? I'm looking for a friend who's wanting to put his on a diet.
Allmoparparts or any dealer can sell you a PCM and price is not bad at least for gas.
