We've been looking at new trucks and have been asking the same question as you. I calculate that we can turn 65 degrees before hitting. The short box we looked at measured 43" from the center of the hitch to the back window, if half our trailer is a bit over 48" it would hit. A lot is based on the design of the front cap of the trailer.
We're going to go with a long box for a new truck, just for the reason we have a really good non slider air hitch now that I want to use and why take the chance, if you only need the slider once it's worth it.
