Can Frame Brackets of Curt TruTrack Install 30 Inches Away from Coupler Ball Hole

Question

Question:

On my V nose trailer I was looking at the TruTrack C17500 system. If I measure from the center of the ball coupler I could mount the spring bracket 30 inches back. Is that far enough back? I noticed a picture on etrailer with a V nose with this system and it looks similar to what I have. Thanks.
