If jimh is right and your GVWR is 6,250 (which sounds reasonable) and you're right in that your empty truck weighs 4,300 then you would be able to carry 1,950 pounds and be at your GVWR. This would include every accessory you bolted to or put in the truck, all the passengers and pets, and all their gear. It would also include the weight of the camper and all the gear in it was well as water, propane, etc.
It's nearly impossible to carry a hard side truck camper on a 150 series truck and not go over the GVWR. If you manage to stay under the RAWR then you could probably do it but I think that will also be difficult.
GCWR and tow rating are completely irrelevant to the discussion.
