It would lots simpler.
You will not be happy with a 240D in that heavy hog. The 280GE is barely enough. I drove one for 111,000 miles in 18 years.
A 617A turbo diesel is probably a better bet. Drop me a note if you have more questions.

It can be done, but you're talking more money than it's probably worth.
