Double cylinders on the side can be a good solution if the rest of the structure is made to use them. They got a bit of a bad rep when they were used on farm trucks because they could tip over. That is because there is nothing to keep them from twisting in a standard truck box. If you put a torque tube in your bed to prevent twisting they will work ok. If you look at a sissor hoist you will find a torque tube somewhere to do this.
As for the rear hitting the ground you can move the axle back or raise the bed some to achieve that. 30° of dump angle is going to make for tough unloading of some things like wet dirt and debris. This trailer has a more than 50° dump angle and it will unload most everything. I've found that less than 45° will give quite a bit of trouble unloading, meaning that you will have to hand unload what doesn't slide. This is even more of an issue with wood floors.
