Your problem is when you are loaded to near the GVWR of the trailer--at 20% of gross as pin weight, you might have as much as 3100 lbs on the rear axle. Also, check the weight capacity of the tires on the truck--that will absolutely be the weakest point--I would not worry too much about being over the axle rating some, but NOT over the tires. If you are careful about loading the trailer, you should be ok. What about the short box and a slider hitch?
