Jay Flight SLX8 Tongue Height

Any chance someone with a 2021 Jay Flight SLX can let me know what the tongue height on this trailer is? I have a 2021 294QBS on order and I'd like to make sure my current hitch and shank are going to work for it before I get there to pick it up. I'm hoping someone can tell me how high it is from ground to the top of where the ball would be when connected. I'm kind of assuming all of the SLX8's would be the same tongue height regardless of actual floor plan.

I'm referring to the height indicated by the picture below while trailer is on level ground.

Thanks in advance.Name:  Screenshot%202021-03-28%207.37.58%20PM.jpg

I work for a GM dealer, so many times i will just take a truck off the lot to use. When th tech at my trailer dealer was setting up my hitch, i explained that to him, so he told me to make sure the top of my ball is 23 - 24 inches. I have a 265RLS Jayflight SLX.

Our TT is a 264BHW and TV is a 2020 F150 Crew Cab. With the hitch installed on my truck, the top of the hitch ball is 24-3/4" high off the level pavement. I just measured this last week.

I've never actually measured the height of top of the trailer tongue coupler, but I imagine it is around 24 to 25" sitting level.
