Nice looking truck Jim, I've got the same MY in KR trim.
The camper in my sig typically scales around 5500-5600 lbs. The only thing I've done to the suspension on mine is add some home-made stable loads. I made these out of UHMW plastic that I salvaged from work. I made them as much to get rid of the rubber bumpers as to make the overload springs engage sooner. I didn't like the noise the rubber bumpers made.


I wouldn't do anything to yours until you make a trip or two with the camper and see what it needs.
