The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on determining tongue weight for you to check out as well. You will want the loaded tongue weight of your setup to fall right in the middle of the tongue weight range of the system you use.

I tried looking up the weight of your 2018 Jayco SLX Baja 19 and it would most likely have a tongue weight that would fall in the range of the Strait Line system part # RP66073 that you referenced which has a range of 400-800 lbs tongue weight. Or for the version of this that comes with a shank you'd want the part # RP66083.

For a 2 inch ball then you'd want the # A-90.
