We purchased a 2020 Jay Flight 24rbs back in April. I read through all the mod pages posted here and found some great suggestions.
Here is a list of the mods I've completed. Additionally I will list everything I've had to repair, upgrade or items we've added.
This is our 3rd Jayco trailer. Here is the last 3 months of mods. More to follow I'm sure!
Repaired / Adjusted
Leaky low point drain valve on main water tank(s).
Dining table light pendants were angled towards each other from the mounting screws being too tight so I straightened them out.
Rear storage compartment shelf was not attached on the right side. This is the shelf above the pull-out stove/sink outdoor kitchen. Reattached.
Propane tank mounting plate was put on crooked. It was 3/4 of an inch offset to one side and pushed back 1/2 inch on that same side. Had to completely re-drill it and repaint it.
Had a really bad ground loop hum through the stereo speakers. Found the fridge 12v wire terminated on the fuse panel incorrectly. Over half of the copper was not in the termination hole. I fixed that and put everything back together. The hum disappeared.
Queen bed platform screws on the left and middle support had already pulled through the plywood mattress base at the head of the platform before we used the trailer. Reattached those - more on this later.
The Furrion stereo was loose on the left side. Found the factory used a small vertical piece of pine that split in two when they screwed down the stereo. Replaced and pilot drilled so it is now tight.
Had to adjust the main entry door latch as it was extremely difficult to close. It required the door be slammed to latch. There is a metal strike plate that i recessed slightly with a hammer. Works much better.
Found a missing screw on the outside wheel well plastic trim ring. Replaced.
Flipped the propane regulator so it can be read.
Modifications
Reinforced Bed framing by adding the cross members that others have. Still need to work on the insulation in that area but everything is functional and supported now.
Installed a Maxxair Deluxe fan w/remote. Love this mod but hate the beeper. Everytime you click a key on the remote the thing beeps. I will probably disable it over winter. Hung the remote so it is easily controlled in the seated position!

Installed a pwm dimmer on the dining table pendant light. Like others I feel the LEDs are just too harsh. Drilled a small hole in the side for the dimmer. Ebay dimmer link:

The 30amp plug bay mouse hole was already shattered behind the mouse hole when we took delivery so I changed it up to a Smart Plug. Amazon link:
https://www.amazon.com/Smart-Plug-B3...5720155&sr=8-2 This required me to fabricate my own mounting plate for the outside as smart plug doesn't make a universal plate. I like their system so I adapted. Here is the plate made from a cutting board. Small circle was the original mouse hole outer diameter. I painted it black after cutting it out.
Added a Progressive Industries HW30C 30amp hardwired surge protector while I was changing out the cord arrangement. Amazon link:
https://www.amazon.com/PROGRESSIVE-I..._t1_B0050EH004 I placed the remote down low beneath the TV entertainment center. Caution! It wasn't easy getting the remote to the far left as there is a vertical divider in the lower space separating the two inaccessible compartments near the floor. I was concerned about fit for the surge protector but noticed Rustic Eagle mounted his where I planned on mounting mine so I dove head 1st (Thanks Bob)!
I split the circuit for the stair amber light and the awning light. For the stairs I use the factory awning light switch and put a dimmer on the awning that has an internal switch. Dimmer here:

Replaced the main door privacy glass as others have. Love this mod! Showing a pic of the stupid plastic holders that are being used on the newer units. They are a pain. No screws holding the bezel on like the older units. Here is what the old clip(s) looks like that you will need to defeat to remove the bezel.
Replaced the outlet in the dinette with one that has usb charge ports. Will also be doing this in the bedroom drivers side.
Removed the beeper internal to the microwave.
Added higher strength towing chains. I needed i bit more length than the factory installed chains allowed. I plan on leaving the factory installed chains on as I will use them to lock motorcycles, kayaks and bicycles to the trailer. The replacements are bolted on. The OEM's are welded on.
Replaced the faucet in the bathroom with a Glacier Bay unit from Home Depot. $31 and change. Will also do this mod on the outside sink before camping season ends. I can actually wash my hands now! Copied Jay on this one.
Fabricated a outside kitchen paper towel holder. Purchased the plastic holder from Kroeger. I used thin gauge flat steel and cut a rectangle out with tin shears. Painted it white and mounted it to the cargo bay door with 3 command strips.
I purchased sticky back neodymium magnets online and fab'd another piece of steel to cover the back of the paper towel holder to stick the magnets to as the holder was not solid. Attached with teeny tiny screws.
Viola! Removable holder. Sticks to the side of the stove for transport/closing.
Additions
Installed 6 volt batteries as we do a lot of boondocking.
Added 3m Command strip Key rack below the control bay door.
I added a 2nd TV so we have a 32" TV in the bedroom and it can easily move to the outside TV mount under the awning. I used an HDMI wireless extender so the satellite signal on the main TV is transmitted to the 2nd TV wherever it is located. The transmitter stays in the entertainment center and the receiver is velcro'd to the back of the 2nd TV. Product on Amazon:

The list continues to grow! We have a couple of trips completed so far. Time to camp!
