I agree with Scott, you don't need any add ons. That truck, with that gearing, would be capable of towing any size trailer within it's payload and axle ratings.

You have found the truck now it is a matter of finding a trailer or 5th wheel that DOES NOT EXCEED that trucks payload.
One very important thing to remember is that most RV dealers when they talk weight they talk unloaded weight. You will be told that yes your truck will tow that RV and only come to find that yes it tows it but you will be white knuckled every time. I know this from experience.
With a 5th wheel you will hit the limit on payload (Hitch pin weight) faster then the towing capacity. So you will need to know the pin weight and the loaded vehicle weight rating (GVWR) for the 5th wheel.
Do the research on exactly what your trucks limits are and then find the RV that comes in under those limits and you will not have an issue.
