Stiffening front suspension when you have heavy load on rear axle will worsen the handling.
Law of physics.
Yes and no. While I doubt the initial spring rate “needs” to be any stiffer, the camper could be adding load to an already-heavy front end.
Weight transfer when braking or when turning and the whole truck rolls to one side could be improved by sumos if set up correctly and at the same time, not affect initial spring rate.
It’s something I considered on the old truck as adding a heavier front sway bar, like any sway bar, also has its subtle disadvantages in handling by making a solid axle even more solid and the characteristics that come with that.
OP could report how it acts empty.
