I tow a similar setup as what you have now, and have towed a 28' once for a friend. That 28' towed better than my FunFinder 215. That was due to more tongue weight, the FunFinder is very light in the front due to the rear kitchen. Your plan to move to LT tires and B5100 shocks is very wise. The weak point in the whole system are those very flexible P rated tires. You didn't mention what wheelbase you have on your F150 CC. The longer wheelbase (with 6.5' bed) is better, but the shorter WB (with 5.5' bed) will do OK.
If you experience sway, and have tried the standard methods of controlling it (anti-sway bar on the hitch and load distribution), you can always install a decent rear sway bar on the truck. I also put Timbrens on my F150, but don't really need them when towing with a weight-distribution hitch. They help a LOT though if I put a heavy load in the bed.
