In the above situation- trailer pushing extended hitch 8 feet behind rear axle will jack-knife the set way faster than trailer with extended tongue pushing the hitch 4 feet behind the axle.
But extending tongue by 4' is not that easy and crawling under the camper to make the hitch is not really appealing.
Ditto on both.
And I sure woulnd't want to tow a trailer whose pivot point is under the truck camper. The trailer is going to track tighter than the truck on turns, which equates to a maneuverability nightmare.
