More than one dealer told you this and what is that dealer there for to sell campers or to tell the truth? If you start putting a LB camper on a SB truck in most cases the COG is now behind the rear axle anywhere from 12 to 18". Not the ideal location. Look at any truck and they well show the COG should be no more than about 4" behind the center of the rear axle.
This IMO
