Length of Fifth Wheel

I have a 2012 Jayco Eagle 321 RTLS. Paperwork says it is 35.5' in length. Does anyone know where those measurements are taken from? Trying to decide if I can store in enclosed garage measuring 12' X 35'.

I have found that model number of a TT or fiver are not a measurement of overall length. The trailer spec sheets will have overall length. I suspect your 35.5' length is from hitch pin to bumper.

Your shed is 6" too short. sorry.

Bob, tjpolsin sounds right on. 35.5' should be your hitch pin to bumper length. So your enclosed garage is just a bit to short. As well, if you have the air conditioner on top, your height is going to come in around 151 to 160 inches. This is a little to tall for the 144" (12ft) height of your storage.
