Default Towing question guys

I have a 2001 dodge Dakota Quad Cab.
It has a 4.7L v8 and it sets kind of low in the back it looks like the
leaf springs are a little flattened out.

When pulling my boat it sets a little low and all i got is a 2" ball on the bumper no tow package.

And i am getting ready to buy a 1977 16 or 17 foot camper that has dual axles on it. It seams it is pretty heavy but i have not hooked it up to my truck yet.

The question is will this truck pull the camper ok in your opinions.

I dont know whether to add some adjustable load shocks, or coil over shocks or add a leaf spring helper or air bags.

WHAT DO YOU ALL RECOMMEND?
I WANT TO KEEP THE TRUCK BECAUSE IT IS PAID FOR AND DONT WANT A PAYMENT AND I WANT TO DO THIS AS CHEAP AS POSSIBLE.

I WILL BE ADDING A HITCH FOR SHUR BECAUSE MY BOAT HAS A 2" BALL AND THE CAMPER IS A 2" SOMETHING.

THANKS FOR ANY INPUT.
