Default RV towing with 2006 Ram 5.9?

I asked before but only two folks replied. I want to know how important it is try and install an exhaust brake for towing a 16,000 camper. Cummins no longer offers it and aftermarket say it can be done but others say an exhaust brake will trash the tranny.
I am concerned about the 6degree hills on interstate out west. Very uncertain but I want to be safe.
Thanks for your comments.,

Don't need it, if the rest of the truck/trailer is set up properly.

I think the answers provided in your duplicate thread are sufficient. Since you created another thread on the same subject, I closed your first one.
