I put mine just past the center to the rear.  That way there is little to no tongue weight on the atv, but I really never pulled it with the atv after it was all done.  You can rearrange some of your things inside too to add a little more tongue weight or take some off, but that is only to a point.  I would not go farther than center of your shack though.

You want roughly a 60 to 40 ratio of length in the front to rear. I am actualy building one the same size right now and I put them 81" off the rear of the trailer.
