Yes you are in a tight load limit with even the camper. Pic of the rear suspension upgrades I did to my '16 2500HD Denali Duramax Crew.  Just with a std. fiber cap, steel tool bed slide out and my work tools. No 3k lb. camper, and I thought this truck handled like Pooo. On moderate bumps, the rear would bottom out and  hit the rubber bump stops !!

I put aftermarket sway bars (anti roll bars) on other trucks I've owned in the past, including a motorhome. So xxxxx-off at how my new 2500 HD handled, I put on a Roadmaster 1.50"  rear sway bar , Firestone 3500 Lb. Air Bags, and Bilstein gas shocks. Night / Day difference !!!!  These parts on an oiled tarp, after I got "T" boned at an intersection by runner of a red light. Truck totaled

 

My '24 2500 HD Denali Ultimate Duramax should be here this Tuesday. I ordered it with the Max Trailering Pkg. #NHT, that includes a 3500 HD Frame, 3500 HD Rear Leaf Springs & Overloads, 3500 HD Shocks and 12" Axel. I also ordered the Front Camper HD Spring option # F60.

Now with this factory super rear end capacity option for a 2500HD,   I only ordered a new Roadmaster Rear 1.50" Sway Bar (now should not need the air bags for my application).

they list this for a 2500 but says the truck must have overload springs.
