01 What makes the 2020 347BHOK different
The Eagle 347BHOK sits in the full-size tier of Jayco's Eagle fifth wheels, above the half-ton Eagle HT and below the luxury North Point and Pinnacle coaches. This page covers one model year of it — the 2020 347BHOK, 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 2020 model year Jayco published a 14850-pound GVWR on a 12865-pound dry weight, 1,985 pounds of published cargo capacity, a 2195-pound dry pin weight. A pin weight in that range lands well outside half-ton territory: plan on a three-quarter-ton or larger truck, and check the loaded pin against the truck's payload and rear-axle ratings rather than against the tow rating alone.
Against the 2018 build of the same floorplan, 6 published fields moved. The full comparison is in section 02, and it is drawn from two separate verified factory records rather than from one record and an assumption about the other.
A 2020 coach is 6 model years old as of 2026, which puts it squarely in used-buyer territory. Section 05 sets out what to inspect on a laminated-wall fifth wheel 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.

What it takes to tow this
Built from this floorplan’s verified weights. We publish the trailer side only.
We do not publish tow ratings for specific trucks. A single model can vary by thousands of pounds depending on engine, axle ratio, cab, drivetrain and package — the only authoritative figure is the one on your own door jamb. Loaded pin percentages are industry convention for fifth wheels (15–25% of loaded weight), not a measurement of this unit. Hitch classes are not used here as a rating: SAE J684 covers trailers to 10,000 lb GVWR and does not define Class V, and capacity boundaries differ between manufacturers — read the rating stamped on your hitch.
03 What changed for the 2020 model year
Jayco changed 6 of the published fields between the 2018 and 2020 347BHOK. Every figure in both columns is that model year's own factory record — nothing here is carried across from the other year.
| Field | 2018 | 2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dry weight (UVW) | 12,155 | 12865 | +710 lb |
| GVWR | 14,850 | 14850 | — |
| Cargo capacity (CCC) | 2,695 | 1,985 | -710 lb |
| Dry pin weight | 2,270 | 2195 | -75 lb |
| Exterior length | 41' 1" | 41'1" | — |
| Interior height | Not published | 8'7" | — |
| Model year | Dry (UVW) | GVWR | Dry pin | Sleeps | Tire size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2018 | 12,155 | 14,850 | 2,270 | Not published | Not published |
| 2020 | 12865 | 14850 | 2195 | Not published | Not published |
Every row is that model year's own factory record. The all-years overview for this floorplan, with the family history and the full line, is on the Jayco Eagle 347BHOK parent page.
GVWR changed for 2020
GVWR was 14,850 for 2018 and is 14850 for 2020. Both figures are the manufacturer's own for their year.
Dry pin weight changed for 2020
Dry pin weight was 2,270 for 2018 and is 2195 for 2020 (-75 lb). Both figures are the manufacturer's own for their year.
Where these numbers come from
Every figure on this page is read from Jayco's own 2020 model page for the 347BHOK — one source, one model year, no blending. The all-years parent page additionally holds a figure from a second publisher for some fields and publishes both where they disagree, without picking a winner. If the two pages differ on a weight, that is the disclosure working, not an error.
Fields Jayco does not publish for 2020
For this model year the factory record omits: Exterior Width (with slides out), Exterior Height, Tire Size, Fresh Water Capacity (gals), Gray Water Capacity (gals), Propane Unit (lbs), Propane Unit (lbs) (Optional), Water Heater, Furnace BTU, Furnace, Auto-ignition (BTU output), # of outside storage compartments, Sleeps. Those rows read “Not published” on this page. They are deliberately not filled in from an adjacent model year — a neighbouring year's figure is an inference about this one, not a measurement of it.
04 Buying a 2020 347BHOK at 6 model years old
Tyres are almost certainly past their service age
At 6 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 2020 model year. A used coach carries its previous owner's additions, and a fifth wheel puts roughly 15-25% of the load through the truck's rear axle. Weigh the loaded rig at a public scale and check it against the truck's payload, rear-axle and hitch ratings.

06 Loading it for a trip
Cargo capacity on the 347BHOK is 1,985 pounds — the entire budget for gear, water, propane, batteries and everything else you put aboard.
| Weight budget | Figure | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Cargo capacity as published (CCC) | 1,985 lb | Everything you add: gear, water, propane, batteries, food, people’s belongings. |
The published dry pin weight of 2,195 pounds is 17% of this floorplan’s 12,865-pound dry weight. Fifth-wheel pin weight rides in the bed of the truck, so it comes off payload rather than off tow rating — and it rises with the trailer as you load it, not in proportion to what you put over the axles.
Nothing above changes the ceiling. Loaded to its 14,850-pound GVWR the 347BHOK is towing 1,985 pounds more than its 12,865-pound dry figure, and that is the number your vehicle has to be rated for — not the brochure weight.
07 Where this floorplan sits
| Comparable fifth wheels | GVWR (lb) | Dry (lb) | Sleeps | Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 347BHOK | 14,850 | 12,865 | — | 41 ft 1 in |
| Wildcat 402BEDS | 14,800 | 12,353 | 8 | 42 ft 3 in |
| Nightfall 270N | 14,759 | 9,459 | — | 32 ft 3 in |
| Sandstorm 2710 | 14,759 | 9,459 | — | 32 ft 3 in |
| Avenue 35RKS | 14,995 | 11,300 | 6 | 36 ft 10 in |
| Model Z 2810 | 14,995 | 11,894 | 6 | 34 ft 9 in |
| Reflection 360FLS | 14,995 | 12,388 | 6 | 39 ft 2 in |
Against the 347BHOK: the Wildcat 402BEDS is 50 lb lighter and 1 ft longer; the Nightfall 270N is 91 lb lighter and 9 ft shorter; the Sandstorm 2710 is 91 lb lighter and 9 ft shorter. Those are differences in the published numbers only — what they cost, how they are built and how they live are separate questions each of those pages answers on its own terms.
Those are the nearest fifth wheels from other lines by weight — one per line, picked by proximity on that figure and nothing else. They are listed so the same tow vehicle can be checked against real alternatives, not because they are equivalent inside; layout, build and price diverge sharply across that group.
For scale, the Eagle floorplans profiled here run 6,560 to 13,030 pounds dry and 28 to 43 feet of exterior length across 81 plans. Where a floorplan falls in that spread usually says more about which vehicle can tow it, and which site it fits, than the layout name does.
Every profiled floorplan in this line, with the full weight table, is on the Eagle line hub.
08 Common questions about the 347BHOK
How much does the 347BHOK weigh?
It leaves the factory at 12,865 pounds dry, and its manufacturer-set loaded ceiling (GVWR) is 14,850 pounds. Real towing weight lands between the two and depends entirely on what you load. Use the GVWR when matching a tow vehicle; the dry figure is only useful for comparing floorplans against each other.
How much can the 347BHOK carry?
Cargo carrying capacity is 1,985 pounds. That is the whole budget: water, propane, batteries, gear and everything you bring.
What is the pin weight of the 347BHOK?
The published dry pin weight is 2,195 pounds. It is measured empty; loaded, it runs higher, and it comes out of your tow vehicle’s payload rather than its tow rating.
What size tow vehicle does the 347BHOK need?
Your vehicle needs a tow rating of at least 14,850 pounds — this floorplan’s GVWR — and enough payload left over for the hitch load, passengers and anything in the bed. This site does not publish tow ratings for specific vehicles, because one truck model varies by thousands of pounds across engine, axle ratio, cab and package. The figure that governs is the payload sticker on your own door jamb.
How long is the 347BHOK?
Exterior length is 41'1". Measure against your site length and your storage before committing — the exterior figure is the one that has to fit, and it includes the tongue or pin box.
Every figure in these answers is read from this page’s verified specification table. Where the manufacturer publishes nothing, the question is not answered rather than estimated.
09 What this page publishes, and what it does not
This catalog tracks 18 specification fields per floorplan. Named sources publish 8 of them for the 347BHOK. The rest are not shown, because the alternative is reading a figure across from a sibling floorplan or from what the segment usually does — and a number nobody published is worth less than an admitted gap.
Not published for this floorplan: exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank, sleeps, slide count, axle count, tire specification, awning, refrigerator, air conditioning. If you find one of these in a manufacturer document for this plan, it belongs on this page.
The completeness figure at the foot of this page (43%) measures the same thing on the full field set: it is a measurement of how much this floorplan’s manufacturer publishes, not of how much research went into the page.
How every figure here was sourced and checked is set out on the methodology page.
11 NHTSA safety record
This floorplan belongs to the Eagle line, and NHTSA holds 44 recall campaigns and 114 owner complaints against that line. They are separate records and are not added together — a recall is a manufacturer-confirmed defect with a remedy; a complaint is one owner’s account, which NHTSA does not verify.
What to look at on a used one. Across the 114 complaints filed on this line the most-reported components are tires (23%), structure (18%) and equipment (13%). That is where owners of this family have had trouble, so it is where an inspection is worth the time.
Recall coverage is not complete — our harvest of NHTSA’s recall API ran 1,556 queries, of which 0 failed and 242 returned an explicit zero. A line can still be under-reported where NHTSA files a roster under a parent name, or where a match rests on the wording of the recall rather than its model field. Complaints come from the complete bulk file but are unverified and self-selected: a high count tracks how many units a line sold at least as much as how well it was built. Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Eagle line page.
