Building a hyd dump on a trailer with a single axle is a risky thing to do. The hinge has to be as near to the axle as possible. If you hinge it at the rear it will put a lot of lift on the rear of your pulling rig, possibly picking it off the ground.
The tongue and main frame of the trailer has to be overbuilt a bit to withstand the lifting and changing center of gravity as the load is picked. I would tend to make it a bit tongue heavy. The farther back you can put the axle within reason, the better it will make it for dumping, and will be easier for backing too.
