Depends on the hilux. mk7s are anywhere between 2.2 and 2.8 tons from what I've seen, new ones 3,2-3,5t. Also depends on how much weight is in the back of the truck (Towing the full 2,8t with mine, i can only have 300kg in the truck before the GTW is exceeded)

Does the logbook have any info? Or are you looking to buy one?

The new hilux has a GTW of 5850kg. I opted for the 3.5 towing capacity. It just limits the truck to carry 300kg less but only if the full 3500 is towed. Hope this helps.

Brochure says 5850, so if towing 3,5t, vehicle payload (excluding driver) is 260kg-375kg depending on model

So with your 600kg trailer with its 2600kg load, 3200kg total weight you'd still be able to have 560-675kg load on the truck if my maths is correct
