For your 2017 Ford F-250 4WD I recommend going with the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS3611-SHD if your truck does NOT have upper overload springs, or the # RAS3611-SLHD if your truck has upper overload springs.

These kits provide 3000lbs of load leveling support to the 2900lb truck bed camper you have, and are the best on the market for reducing sway and body roll. These will also prevent axle wrap giving you an overall better ride and driving experience.

The 7500lb air helper springs # F95FV would give more support to eliminate sag, but will not be anywhere near as effective at fighting sway as the kits mentioned above.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
