Weighed it Today
Finally I got around to having the unit weighted. Here is the result:
4960 front axel
5780 rear axel
9420 trailer axles
How do I look? I think I am good to go.

You are 740 lbs over your truck GVWR: 10740 (front and rear axle weight) - 10000 (GVWR of truck) = 740 lbs over......you should post your yellow sticker also that shows your cargo carrying capacity

I know that it will not increase my legal GVWR of 10,000 #'s, but I do have the Firestone airbags.

Air bags do not and will not ever increase your truck towing capacity.
What is the camper pin weight?

Not sure about the 12 but with a 15 they only difference between a F250 and F 350 is a sticker. Been pro en time and time again. I have such a truck with the same sticker you have.
Up to you. I say don't worry about it.

You already know you over your GVWR but you are also within 220 lbs of going over you rear axle weights also so I hope that packed and ready to go camping weight with everyone in the truck ready to camp. With just 220 left on your axles you we on a weight watchers diet with you 5er.
I would take a look at the ratings on your rear tires because if the were like mine the were at 3050 lbs each.

Tires show a weight capacity of 3,197, so x2=6,394. Looks to me like the only exceedance is the 700 or so on the max vehicle weight.

I had 3100 pound pin and me at 240lbs in the bed of my truck and the front part of the overload springs are not touching and the back good 3/4 inch from touching. A guy at the camp grounds had a 2016 F250 camper special they were touching at 2600 pounds. What's the difference?

Put my F250 next to my neighbors F350. Both are 2016. The ONLY difference besides color is he has 1 extra leaf in the rear springs. I have the 10,000# camper option.

It's a four year old truck and have the tires been replaced? If so, with what rated tires? I would check the tires and not rely on sticker on the door.

I have Camper option as well. If I use the posted capacity with camper and occupants I have 2800 lbs total. More than enough for what I will tow and lots of room with what I have now.
The truck is daily driver and actually I like the ride better than the King Ranch F 150 SCREW I traded.
