You might be fine already. Assuming truck has E rated tires. Does your truck have the top overload spring? IMHO one does not have to run out and buy 19.5 rims and tires right away. What kind of rims do you have if Forged Aluminum those are strong. I have been impressed with the Nitto high load index tires. Nitto terra at 3750 lbs. at 80 psi or the Durra which has even more capacity at 3970 lbs. at 80 psi. I am on my second set and have hauled 2 heavier campers than 1025 for thousands of miles. I have added airbags, Helwig sway bar, add a leave springs to rear pack, and Bilstein shocks. I recently purchased a 1998 Lance 990 Legend 11' 3" model with a stated dry weight of 3259 Lbs.which I am sure is not accurate and have no problems hauling with my 2006 Dodge 2500 long bed 4x4 CTD loaded for a trip.
