Hi Mike; to find the right weight distribution hitch for your 2023 Jayco Jay Flight 240RBS you will need to know the tongue weight of your loaded setup. The best way to find this is with a tongue weight scale like the # BTBRV44FR. You can also use one of the other methods outlined in the help article I attached below.
Since we don't have an exact measurement right now we can take a guess based off of your trailer specs. Tongue weight is typically 10-15% of your trailer weight. The dry hitch weight is 620 lbs and the GVWR is 6,750 lbs so fully loaded you're looking at 1,012 lbs.
Based on these numbers I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37100ET. Equal-i-zer makes a well designed, reliable WDH that is widely considered the best in the business. This model has a tongue weight range of 600 lbs - 1,000 lbs so you'll be covered no matter how your trailer is loaded.
