With every camper I have looked at the center of gravity is over the rear axle and the location is different in terms of distance from the front of the box for campers designed for long and short bed trucks.
I would be cautious in looking at campers that have a dry weight of 3400 lbs. or more as when fully loaded for a trip you are going to be over the load rating for your two rear tires unless you put out the $3500 for a set of 19.5 rims and tires.
Many lighter campers are available for long and short bed trucks and all you give up is a dry bath.
