Hi Richard!

We definitely have options for converting your 2022 Jayco Eagle 321RSTS to a gooseneck! I will say that we don't have any Reese products though. Their parent company (First Brands) has been having some... "issues" as of late and their parts are basically impossible to get ahold of. Look them up online and you will see what I mean. With that said, check out the following parts:

MORryde GooseTech 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box for 11.5K to 14K Trailers w/ Lippert Rhino # MR74MV
Curt Helux 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Shock-Absorbing Pin Box Adapter - 20K GTW - 2,350 lbs TW # C22UB
B&W 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box - Lippert Rhino - 25K GTW - 3.25K TW # BW23RV
Gen-Y Hitch Shock 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box - Lippert Rhino - 24K GTW - 4.5K TW # GY33GR

From what I could find, your Jayco has a GVWR of 12,700 pounds and a loaded pin weight of 1,995 pounds. Knowing those weights, I think the Gen-Y is going to be too heavy duty for your camper, but the MORryde, Curt, and B&W are still good options. The MORryde will match your weights the best, but the Curt and B&W will be the nicer options. B&W is my preference as it uses a SumoSprings jounce for the cushioning and we have been getting very good feedback from those that have purchased them. Plus B&W stuff is built to last and I just like their products.

If I were doing this upgrade, I would be choosing between the MORryde and the B&W. The MORryde matches your camper better, but the B&W is nicer. One thing to note, the B&W comes with safety chains and the MORryde does not, so you will need to grab the # MR23MV if you decide to go that route.

What all do you keep in your bed when you are towing? Or is it more so you don't have to deal with a big 5th wheel hitch when you aren't towing?
