That weight should be fine for a 350SRW.
As with all F250/350/450's with the upper overload spring sets, the overload springs are spaced too far away from the bump stops. This causes the springs to not kick in until way too late, after the truck is sagged too far, or not kick in at all, if the load isn't heavy enough.
You'll likely want to add Torklift StableLoad spring spacers to the overload spring bump stops on the frame, so the overloads can kick in sooner. Having the overloads fully engaged helps reduce body roll and sag. They don't cost much and are very easy to install.
If your truck has the camper package, which includes the rear sway bar as part of the package, the sway bar is a very good thing to have, to further reduce body roll with the camper on. Adding an aftermarket rear sway bar will likely be one of the things you'll want to do, if the truck doesn't have it already.
