My old truck was similar to yours - and we hauled a camper. Tires will make a big difference. A friend of mine runs 19.5 Rickson wheels and "F" load range tires. On my truck we ran "E" range and kept them aired up. It reduced the body roll significantly over the "D" range tires the truck had when I bought it.

My friend also runs the Helwig swaybar and adjustable Rancho shocks. His truck really controls the weight well.

I upgraded my truck to the '02 in my signature to handle more weight (and a bigger camper). I am now running "G" load range tires with air bags. The DRW makes a huge difference.
