01 What makes the 2018 267BHS different
The Jay Flight SLX 267BHS is one of Jayco's Jay Flight SLX travel trailers, the lighter value tier of Jayco’s Jay Flight nameplate. This page covers one model year of it — the 2018 267BHS, exactly as Jayco published it — because the numbers that decide whether your truck can pull this trailer are not the same from one year to the next.
For the 2018 model year Jayco published a 7,000-pound GVWR on a 5,600-pound dry weight, 1,400 pounds of published cargo capacity, a 665-pound dry tongue weight. That dry tongue is 12% of the dry weight, inside the 10–15% band conventionally quoted for a bumper-pull trailer. Tongue weight is not fixed — it moves with how the trailer is loaded, and weight added ahead of the axles raises it. A tongue load in that range wants a weight-distribution hitch, and the tow vehicle's tongue-weight limit is a separate number from its trailer-weight limit — check the loaded tongue against the hitch receiver's rating and the vehicle's payload, not against the tow rating alone.
This is the earliest 267BHS model year with a verified factory record in this catalogue. Later years are linked at the foot of the page, each with its own published figures.
A 2018 trailer is 8 model years old as of 2026, which puts it squarely in used-buyer territory. Section 05 sets out what to inspect on a travel trailer of this age — tyre date codes, roof and seam sealant, slide seals, and the soft-floor and delamination checks that separate a tidy coach from an expensive one.
Specifications by model year
2018 is the only model year this catalogue holds a verified factory record for the 267BHS. That record is published here on its own, and it is not a general specification for the floorplan: Jayco revises published weights, ratings and even tire sizes from one model year to the next, so every figure below is evidence about 2018 and about no other year.
| Model year | Dry (UVW) | GVWR | Cargo (CCC) | Dry tongue | Sleeps | Tire size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2018 | 5,600 | 7,000 | 1,400 | 665 | Not published | Not published |
The row above is the 2018 model year’s own record from Jayco’s model page for that year. When a second model year is sourced for this floorplan, it joins the table above on this same page and at this same address — nothing moves and no link breaks. The figures in the tow-critical placard at the top of this page are that same 2018 record. On the weights, overall length and tire size, that record and Jayco’s own 2018 model page agree on every field both of them publish. Exterior height is not compared: Jayco publishes a bare height, a with-A/C height and a with-2nd-A/C height, and the single height row carried here cannot be matched to one of them, so no claim is made either way.

Towing it
Loaded range: 10–15% of GVWR on the tongue, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433).
04 Buying a 2018 267BHS at 8 model years old
Tyres are almost certainly past their service age
At 8 years old, the original the factory tire size will be well beyond the five-to-seven-year age window RV tyres are normally replaced on, regardless of tread depth. Budget for a full set plus the spare unless there is a dated receipt.
Water is what kills these, and it is the cheapest thing to check
Press the walls and floor around the entry, the slide openings, the rear wall and under the front cap. Soft spots, a wavy or rippled sidewall, or a stained ceiling are delamination and water ingress, and they are structural rather than cosmetic.
Appliance and component life
Absorption fridges, water heaters and A/C units commonly need attention somewhere in the second decade. Run every appliance on both gas and mains before agreeing a price.
Weigh it before you tow it
Every weight on this page is a DRY factory figure for the 2018 model year. A used trailer carries its previous owner's additions, and a travel trailer puts its tongue load on the tow vehicle's hitch and through its rear axle. Weigh the loaded rig at a public scale and check it against the tow vehicle's payload, rear-axle and hitch ratings.
05 How it compares
Every Jay Flight SLX floorplan this catalogue holds a verified factory record for, with its own published weights.
06 Loading it for a trip
Cargo capacity on the 267BHS is 1,400 lb.
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Jay Flight SLX 242BHS, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 4 of the 5 fields both publish (this plan first): length 30 ft 2 in vs 29 ft 2 in; dry weight 5,600 lb vs 5,405 lb; cargo capacity 1,400 lb vs 1,595 lb; dry hitch weight 665 lb vs 620 lb. They match on GVWR.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 16 recall campaigns and 24 owner complaints against the Jay Flight SLX line. They are counted separately: a recall is a confirmed defect with a remedy, a complaint one owner’s unverified account.
What to look at on a used one. Across the 24 complaints filed on this line the most-reported components are equipment (33%), electrical system (17%) and fuel/propulsion system (17%).
Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Jay Flight SLX line page.
