redneckery and opinions needed. motor on my bumper for 2500 miles

I am thinking of picking up a spare om617.952 compete and bringing it home to have around as a spare motor or possibly for a full rebuild for my swap. (1991 Toyota pickup)

the question is, how feasible is it to hang it from my motorcycle carrier hitch mounted tray? you know a ride on platform i carry my dirbike on but with some dunnage under the motor mount arms and a bunch of ratchet/tie down straps holding it.

6000 lb hitch
3500 Mercedes Sprinter if that matters

and carrier is a steel frame with an aluminum c-Channel rail that usually has wheels on it.

hopefully vote in a poll if i can figure it out
