01 What makes the 2025 29CBD different
The Eagle HT 29CBD is one of Jayco's Eagle HT fifth wheels, the lighter tier below the full-size Eagle. This page covers one model year of it — the 2025 29CBD, 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. Jayco publishes it at 8' 0" wide closed and 11' 4" with the slide-outs run out for the 2025 model year, which is the measurement that matters for a site pitch as well as for the road.
For the 2025 model year Jayco published a 11,450-pound GVWR on a 9,525-pound dry weight, 1,925 pounds of published cargo capacity, a 2,075-pound dry pin weight. Check the loaded pin against the truck's payload and rear-axle ratings rather than against the tow rating alone. The 2025 coach left the factory on ST225/75R15'E' tyres; the load range in that code is part of the axle rating and a replacement set has to match it.
This is the only 29CBD model year with a verified factory record in this catalogue.
A 2025 coach is close to current as of 2026, but section 05 still applies: check it against its build date rather than its model year. Jayco commonly builds a model year well before the calendar year turns, and the tyre date codes have to be read against the build month, not the badge.
How the 29CBD differs from the other 51 Eagle fifth wheels. Most distinctive first. Sibling pages may cover other model years than this one (2025). How these ranks are worked out.
- Dry pin weight as a share of dry weight, 21.8%: largest of 52; next are the 31QCD and 360DBOK (21.1%).
- Sleeping capacity, 9: largest of 37; next are the 28BHU, 34MBL and 355MBQS (8).
- Exterior height, 11 ft 10 in: second-lowest of 35, between the 31QBH (10 ft 7 in) and the 30RLT, 31QCD and two others (12 ft 2 in).
- Interior height, 6 ft 2 in: lowest of 46, level with the 25.5REOK, 27.5RLTS and nine others; next is the 28RKS (6 ft 3 in).
- Cargo capacity, 1,925 lb: seventeenth-smallest of 52, between the 27.5RLTS (1,895 lb) and the 28RLT (1,935 lb).
- Dry pin weight, 2,075 lb: nineteenth-heaviest of 52, between the 31MBT (2,055 lb) and the 31QCD and 321RSTS (2,080 lb).
- Dry weight, 9,525 lb: 25th-lightest of 52, between the 29RLC (9,485 lb) and the 28CRT (9,595 lb).
- Length, 34 ft 8 in: shared with the 325MKTS; of 44, 22 shorter and twenty longer, nearest the 29DDB (34 ft 6 in) and the 29.5BHOK (35 ft).
- GVWR, 11,450 lb: 26th-lowest of 52, between the 28CRT and 28RLT (11,400 lb) and the 30CRT and 31RLT (11,600 lb).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 16.8%: shared with the 335LSTS; of 51, 23 smaller and 26 larger, nearest the 30.5MBOK (16.6%) and the 365UKTS (16.9%).
- Fresh tank, 52 gal: shared with the 24MLE, 25RUC and thirteen others; of 52, thirteen smaller and 23 larger, nearest the 28BHU, 28RKS and 31QBH (51 gal) and the 325BHQS, 327CKTS and 339FLQS (75 gal).
- Grey tank, 82 gal: shared with the 24MLE, 25RUC and eighteen others; of 52, fourteen smaller and seventeen larger, nearest the 27RL and 27RS (80 gal) and the 317RLOK, 319MLOK and thirteen others (87 gal).
- Black tank, 45 gal: shared with the 24MLE, 25RUC and eighteen others; of 52, fourteen smaller and seventeen larger, nearest the 27RL and 27RS (43 gal) and the 317RLOK, 319MLOK and nine others (50 gal).
Next to the 29RLC (2024–2026 page), the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 29CBD is 40 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 250 lb higher, has 210 lb more cargo capacity, has a dry pin weight 440 lb heavier, is 7 in longer, stands 5 in lower, has 2 ft 4 in less interior height and sleeps five more; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
Next to the 28CRT (2025–2026 page), the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 29CBD is 70 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 50 lb higher, has 120 lb more cargo capacity, has a dry pin weight 85 lb heavier, is 1 ft 10 in longer, stands 6 in lower, has 2 ft 3 in less interior height and sleeps five more; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
Specifications by model year
2025 is the only model year this catalogue holds a verified factory record for the 29CBD. That record is published here on its own, and it is not a general specification for the floorplan: Jayco revises published weights, ratings and even tire sizes from one model year to the next, so every figure below is evidence about 2025 and about no other year.
| Model year | Dry (UVW) | GVWR | Cargo (CCC) | Dry pin | Sleeps | Tire size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 9,525 | 11,450 | 1,925 | 2,075 | 9 | ST225/75R15'E' |
The row above is the 2025 model year’s own record from Jayco’s model page for that year. When a second model year is sourced for this floorplan, it joins the table above on this same page and at this same address — nothing moves and no link breaks. The figures in the tow-critical placard at the top of this page are that same 2025 record. On the weights, overall length and tire size, that record and Jayco’s own 2025 model page agree on every field both of them publish. Exterior height is not compared: Jayco publishes a bare height, a with-A/C height and a with-2nd-A/C height, and the single height row carried here cannot be matched to one of them, so no claim is made either way.

How these published figures sit against the rest of the catalogue: fifth wheel pin weight and payload; fresh, grey and black tank sizes; camper trailer size chart.
Federal tire recalls naming this size. NHTSA’s recall file names ST225/75R15 in 2 tire recalls: 14T015000 (Dynamic Tire Corp., 2014; make TOWMAX STR; model ST); 17T014000 (Triangle Tire USA, 2017; make TRIANGLE; model TR643). A tire recall covers only the brands, lines and DOT date codes it lists, and this page does not know which brand of tire this trailer was built with, so read the brand and DOT code on your own sidewalls before relying on this list. Only 242 of NHTSA’s 788 tire recalls name a size in their summary, so a size with no match is not a clean record (NHTSA recall file, read 12 Oct 2026).

Towing it
Check your vehicle. Enter the ratings from your owner’s manual and the door-pillar placard.
Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (11,450 lb) and the upper loaded pin estimate (2,862 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 15–25% of GVWR on the pin, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433). The range starts at the published dry figure, because loaded is never lighter than dry.
04 Buying a 2025 29CBD at 1 model years old
Tyres are the first thing to age out
RV tyres are usually replaced on age rather than tread, at roughly five to seven years from the DOT date code on the sidewall. On a 1-year-old coach the originals (ST225/75R15'E') may still be fitted — read the four-digit date code, not the tread.
Roof and seam sealant is on a service interval
Laminated-wall fifth wheels rely on sealant at every roof penetration and along the front cap. Inspection is typically annual and re-sealing every few years; ask for the service records rather than assuming.
Weigh it before you tow it
Every weight on this page is a DRY factory figure for the 2025 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.
05 How it compares
Every Eagle HT floorplan this catalogue holds a verified factory record for, with its own published weights.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 52-gallon fresh tank is about 432 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 22% of the 29CBD’s 1,925 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,493 lb (166 lb per rated berth). Across 52 Eagle fifth-wheel floorplans the water share runs 16% to 34%, and 37 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Eagle 28RLT at 22% and Eagle 34MBL at 23%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Eagle 31QCD, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 6 of the 9 fields both publish (this plan first): length 34 ft 8 in vs 36 ft 6 in; sleeps 9 vs 7; dry weight 9,525 lb vs 9,835 lb; GVWR 11,450 lb vs 11,700 lb; cargo capacity 1,925 lb vs 1,865 lb; hitch weight 2,075 lb vs 2,080 lb. They match on fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
