The issue is not "cracking" the ECU - it looks like Edge/ Holley will let you swap your PCM when you buy their $500 tuner https://edgeproducts.com/shop/dodge-ram-evoht2-pcm-swap-8-speed-only-589

HP Tuners appears to support MDS disable as well - but you need to buy a dongle ($300), credits ($100), and ship your ECU in for modification ($250)

The issue appears to be that FCA removed the ISO command to command MDS, so you can't make a cheap dongle that sends a command and does what you want - you have to ship the ECU in and tune it. *Then* you have to ask whether you want to disable MDS bad enough to pay $500-$650

my reference was cracking GMs c8 ECU is more difficult than finding a way to make deactivate MDS. It is apparent the ECU is cracked with all of these tuners available.

I got a pcm and Diablo tune. Greene tune as well. And pedal commander. I get about 15-17 mpg average. And I have a heavy foot.
