Well if all coupler and the running gear can all take more weight, by process of elimination that pretty much leaves the frame.
FWIW - We had a Jayco previously, and its frame ended up sagging after a while, behind the axles. That, coupled with some other structural problem, promoted us to sell it. Not sure if the newer Jayco frames are better. Ours had a 5" thin-wall tube frame. This go around, the frame was the first thing I looks at when trailer shopping. (since I also had a weekend warrior with a bad frame...)
