Secondly, How does your unit tow as is? I would think near perfect as you have a totally capable tow unit for your camper. you are not even close to the edge and I doubt you will see much, if any, improvement going to 1000 lb bars or larger.

As always, just my opinion.
In my opinion running bars rated for 750 lbs with a 1,000 lb. load (33.3% over the rating) is past the "edge".
