That info is impressive for a 1/2 ton truck! I think that the loaded pin weight, plus whatever else goes in the truck, may put you a little over on payload. With 4,300 RAWR you should be close. E-rated tires are great. You didn't mention what hitch being installed. If it is a heavy auto slider, that is a lot of wt.
IMHO, your truck/trailer could be used, if you can stay under RAWR, with both truck and trailer loaded to camp.
Your FW GVWR with large CCC, tells me that you have 5,200 lb axles under the FW. That is a good thing too, as not only more trailer capacity, but much larger brake drums/shoes.
If you are comfortable with the towing experience, feel safe, it may work for you. While a HD truck would be a better tool for the job for most, everyones comfort zone is not the same
Didn't see the Curt hitch, before I posted. That is not so heavy.
Good luck,
