Hey Charles, thanks for the information. It looks like your 2013 Jayco Jay Feather Ultra Lite X23B has a GVWR of just under 5,000 lbs. This would put your tongue weight between 500 lbs - 750 lbs. The Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control item # C17499 you were looking at would be a good option.
The Curt TruTrack item # C17499 works with a tongue weight range between 500 lbs - 800 lbs. It has built in sway control that will help keep your trailer in line behind your half ton pickup when you make a sudden move or get passed by a semi going down the highway.
This system does not include a hitch ball. Depending on your coupler size you will either need a 2" Hitch Ball item # A-90 or a 2-5/16" hitch ball item # C40030.
What's your tow vehicle?

Hey Charles, did the Curt TruTrack system work well with your Jayco and half-ton pickup? I'm curious to know if it helped with sway control, as it could give others confidence when choosing a setup for similar trailers.
