Hi George!
With the tongue weight of your 2026 Jayco Jay Flight SLX 175BH being around 600 pounds, I recommend going with the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control - Trunnion - 8,000 lbs GTW, 800 lbs TW # FA92-00-0800. You want your loaded tongue weight to fall as close to the middle of the systems capacity and with the Fastway having a tongue weight range of 400 to 800 pounds, it would be a perfect fit. It is a little more expensive than some of the other options, but it is the best one for your weight.
I couldn't find what size coupler your Jay Flight has, so you will need to also get either the 2" ball # EQ91-00-6080 or 2-5/16" ball # EQ91-00-6100 to complete the install.
Out of curiosity, how does your 2020 Ridgeline handle towing? I'm thinking about looking into them and getting rid of my Silverado 1500. Want something more reliable than what GM has been putting as of late.
