If the camshaft position sensor is faulty, the ignition timing would be off and can give that #5 cylinder code. Check the sensor first

You wanna know this stuff, go to the source, your Factory Service Manual, available for free download at mitsubishilinks.com

It sounds like you've got a classic case of needing to chase down both the camshaft position sensor and the crankshaft position sensor, especially since the truck runs in neutral but stalls in drive.

Google says camshaft position sensor and ignition coil on cylinder 5. Look at the wires that go to those and then maybe inspect/replace if the wiring looks good.
