Host Aspen SB
I just purchased a host aspen sb. It was one of the east coast deals where I did the best research I could do, but it was purchased having never seen one in person. Just curious if anyone else on this...

Host told me that adding airbags would be all I need to do for my truck to handle this load.
Josh, whoever told you this was straight-up lying to you!!
There are a lot of experienced folks on this board… and I don't think any of them would agree that your 2500HD is a good match for that Aspen TC.
It's not that it can't be done, but it is going to require a lot more than just adding airbags to make it comfortable and safe to drive; Tires & wheels (at the very least), a heavier spring-pack and/or overload springs, StableLoads, a larger rear anti-sway bar, shocks, etc.
Keep in mind that airbags, regardless of their '5000 lb. load rating', DO NOT increase GVWR.
BTW, I do think that the Host Aspen is a very very nice truck camper and it has one of the nicest floor-plans I have ever seen!! Congrat's on your purchase.
Cheers,
