It won't mess with the trailer bumper frame so long as the bumper on your 2022 Jay Flight SLX 7 174BH is rated for the weight of the bike racks and bikes; we don't have any way of knowing what your bumper is rated for, however, so you'll have to verify with Jayco what it is rated for.

Having said that, the XC2 is not rated for use on a travel trailer, so you'd need a different bike rack as well, and what you can use for the hitch and rack is the following (so long as your bumper is the standard 4" square bumper, which you'll also need to verify):

- etrailer RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # e38HR

- Swagman Nomad Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # S36FR
