A traditional tank type toilet, not sure you can pull that one off though honestly I don't know. Unless someone on the forum can give you some "for sure" answers my advise would be to call your local Jayco dealer or a reputable RV repair ctr for help. Sorry I can't be or more help but do wish you luck.

Hmm... doubt you have the clearance or the overall space in your unit for a 'traditional' toilet. I believe that there's some high-end RV toilets that may be porcelain however most RV's use the plastic. itsy-bitsy peddle operated buckets with an actuated hole-opener thingie toilet that uses little-bitty streams of water to clear the bowl. Living in an RV is all about minimalism!

If you want your trailer to be mobile, you need the present design. If you would have the RV planted in one spot, like a regular house, then you should covert to a house type toilet. A house type toilet would be heavier; water would slosh around in the tank; fresh water tank would empty quickly; black water tank would fill too soon. Park model units do have house type toilet because they aren't pulled down the road except when moved to semi-permanent locations.
