Has nothing to do with payload capacity. It has to do with center of gravity. It is my understanding, and I may be corrected, the manufactures base the center of gravity on a 8-foot TC. They give no consideration for TCs manufactured for a six foot bed.
I usually do not post something like this without a link to a source. I thought I bookmarked the site, but I cannot find it. I stumbled across a list of Dodge trucks from Dodge that showed which trucks were and were not recommended for TCs. I saw no truck bed less than 8-feet with approval of a TC. I am willing to bet, this is also true of Ford and GM.
