Did a quick search as we all did regarding traction, all the sources say do not place weight behind the rear wheels, most say place weight over the rear wheels, I found one that said distribute evenly in the bed of the truck.
My 'center of the truck' came from driver's ed. in upstate New York. There was a film or two that was shown where weight was placed in a cars trunk, on a slippery curve the car literally spun, the center of the car being the axis of rotation. The weight was then placed behind the driver in the center of the vehicle and on the same slippery turn the car did not spin.

Rocinante, like Don Quixote, he is awkward, past his prime, and engaged in a task beyond his capacities.
