01 What makes it unique
KZ lists the 2007 Jag 23JFS at 5,224 lb dry, a GVWR of 7,000 lb, a net carrying capacity of 1,776 lb and a pin weight of 904 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 23'8" long and 131" high. KZ prints its tanks as 30 gal fresh, 35 gal grey, 35 gal black.
Among the 19 Jag floorplans KZ’s Jag brochure (filed in KZ’s 2007 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 8 from the lightest, in a range from 3,840 lb (Jag 20J) to 8,724 lb (Jag 38J2S). Every figure in that comparison is KZ’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from KZ’s Jag brochure (filed in KZ’s 2007 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year); model year 2007 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.
How the 23JFS differs from the other three Jag fifth wheels. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Dry weight, 5,224 lb: lightest of four; next is the 25JFS (6,230 lb).
- GVWR, 7,000 lb: lowest of four; next are the 25JFS, 28JF2S and 28JFSS (10,000 lb).
- Cargo capacity, 1,776 lb: smallest of four; next is the 28JF2S (2,610 lb).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 25.4%: smallest of four; next is the 28JF2S (26.1%).
- Pin weight, 904 lb: lightest of four; next is the 25JFS (1,260 lb).
- Pin weight as a share of dry weight, 17.3%: smallest of four; next is the 25JFS (20.2%).
- Length, 23 ft 8 in: shortest of four; next is the 25JFS (26 ft).
- Exterior height, 10 ft 11 in: lowest of four; next is the 25JFS (11 ft 5 in).
- Fresh tank, 30 gal: smallest of four; next are the 25JFS, 28JF2S and 28JFSS (55 gal).
- Grey tank, 35 gal: smallest of four; next are the 25JFS, 28JF2S and 28JFSS (50 gal).
- Black tank, 35 gal: smallest of four; next are the 25JFS, 28JF2S and 28JFSS (50 gal).
Next to the 25JFS, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 23JFS is 1,006 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 3,000 lb lower, has 1,994 lb less cargo capacity, has a pin weight 356 lb lighter, is 2 ft 4 in shorter, stands 6 in lower, has a fresh tank 25 gal smaller, has a grey tank 15 gal smaller and has a black tank 15 gal smaller; the two publish the same interior height.

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 (7,000 lb) and the upper loaded pin estimate (1,750 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).

04 Notes on this floorplan
What KZ does not publish for the Jag 23JFS
KZ prints no sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, a different model year or a dealer listing.
Read the label on the trailer
Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
4,870 lb dry and 7,000 lb GVWR, against this model’s 5,224 lb and 7,000 lb.
5,620 lb dry and 7,000 lb GVWR, against this model’s 5,224 lb and 7,000 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 30-gallon fresh tank is about 249 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 14% of the Jag 23JFS’s 1,776 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,527 lb. Across 4 Jag fifth-wheel floorplans the water share runs 12% to 17%, and 2 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Jag 25JFS at 12% and Jag 28JFSS at 16%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Jag 25JFS, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 8 of the 8 fields both publish (this plan first): length 23 ft 8 in vs 26 ft 0 in; dry weight 5,224 lb vs 6,230 lb; GVWR 7,000 lb vs 10,000 lb; cargo capacity 1,776 lb vs 3,770 lb; hitch weight 904 lb vs 1,260 lb; fresh tank 30 gal vs 55 gal; grey tank 35 gal vs 50 gal; black tank 35 gal vs 50 gal.

09 What this page publishes, and what it does not
12 of the 18 fields this catalogue tracks are published for the Jag 23JFS. Not published: sleeps, slide count, axle count, refrigerator, air conditioning, tire size (a description is published, a size is not).
Sourcing rules: methodology.
10 Manuals & documents
Sources: kz-rv.com (linked below); the full source note is at the foot of the page.
11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 3 recall campaigns against the Jag line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Jag line page.
Earlier model years
The record at the top of this page is the 23JFS from 2007. The maker’s own documents for earlier model years also list the 23JFS, and that year is printed here: 2006. The figures change from year to year, so check the year on the trailer’s own label. A field a year’s brochure does not print reads “Not published” and is never filled from another year.
| Model year | Dry (UVW) | GVWR | Cargo (CCC) | Dry hitch | Length | Sleeps |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2006 | 5,440 | 7,000 | 1,560 | 830 | 23' 8" | Not published |

Source for 2006. Printed in KZ RV’s Jag brochure (www.kz-rv.com). The document itself prints no model year; KZ RV files it under 2006 in its own brochure folder. Dry weight plus cargo capacity equals the printed GVWR exactly (5,440 + 1,560 = 7,000 lb). Nothing in this record is copied from another model year.
NHTSA record for 2006 Jag
2 recall campaigns filed with NHTSA name the Jag for model year 2006:
No owner complaint filed with NHTSA names the Jag for model year 2006. NHTSA files recalls and complaints by line and model year, not by floorplan, so a campaign listed here may not affect every Jag floorplan; the recall notice says which units it covers.
