I had mud flaps installed on my Chevy (dully) after market. They simply unscrewed the large screws holding the fender well on, and attached them right there. No extra drilling (except through the mud flap to make the hole). Worked great! Looks factory installed. Maybe you can do the same. Not sure how your truck side is attached though.
About your WD system. By the time you fill your tanks with propane, add the battery, and load the camper, your tongue will be heavier than you realize. Here's a thought, this is something I realized just a few weeks ago, after more than 40 years of towing experience.....
If the back of the truck squats (any at all), the headlight angle will be higher! A real problem at night, but if your truck keeps the head lights on during the day too, this could be a real headache for on-coming traffic.
Another thought... if by chance ... just a chance ... you are camped somewhere, and your truck has mechanical failure and you need to get your camper pull somewhere different by another truck, with your hitch, you can still use the WD on another vehicle. (peace of mind).
Unless you are towing an open utility trailer, WD with sway control is still very much needed. You've invested so much into the new truck, and the camper, why not just go ahead and finish it right and be safe, and not sorry. You'll not regret it.
Once you get truck and camper and WD system, go for a nice ride. Then remove the bars and go a little farther. I BET before you get 2 miles down the road, you'll be putting the bars back on,.... even with a 1 ton!
