Been running a 2005 8.1L 3500 SRW with a ~4000lb wet Eagle Cap 950 since late 2006. I added Rancho adjustable shocks but not sure I noticed a huge improvement.

Only ~70k miles on the truck with a MAF sensor, oil pressure sender and coolant cap replacement so far.
If you are looking for "any camper you find" you will need a dually or limit your choices to ~9.5' campers or less.
