can I tow on the ball
My truck is a Ram 2500 diesel with a GVWR of 10,000lbs. My trailer weighs 5300 unloaded. I travel with a full tank of water and not much else, so my total cargo weight is maybe in the four hundred lb ...

Why guess about your weights? Go weigh your truck and trailer as setup for camping and base your decision on facts.
Yep, just get the real numbers as your guesstimates appear way off.
Our 2008 F250 gas weighs in at 7500 per the scales. The diesel is typically heavier.
You are probably a bit higher, so with a 10k GVWR, you likely only have 2000-2500 payload (assuming you aren't one who thinks they know better than the manufacturer).
So do you strictly need a WDH...maybe, maybe not but properly set up with sway control built in, it will tow better.
