Safely, NO !
Plumb silly from information given, IMHO
OP states he just has a ball. Does he have a receiver hitch on the truck, and ball mount? Or is he planning to mount ball on step bumper? Bumper is likely to be to high, which lowers TW. Low TW and tongue high can both cause instability, so it is possible it will not be safe.
Another issue using step bumper is shape of tongue may not allow much turning.
But as to weight, home from dealer is likely gross about 5200, and tanks and battery mounted on tongue would increase TW, but likely not a lot over ratings.
