Dodge Dakota PCM Questions

Having trouble with my 2001 Dodge Dakota Sport the truck will run for about 2 miles and shut off and once it sits for about 3 to 5 minutes it will start again and do the same thing. I had it in the shop and they suggest replacing the pcm which they charge too much to do. How hard is it to replace a PCM if I do it myself?
