Question:

I am replacing an older fender that is 68 x 10-3/4 x 20. Would a 68x9x17 fender work? Thank you.

We have some options for you, so you just need to know a couple things to determine if you can replace your 68" long x 10-3/4" wide x 20" tall fender with the 68" long x 9" wide x 17" tall Tandem Axle Teardrop Trailer Fenders - 15" to 16" Wheels # HP64VR.

They are the same length, which is great, so what you are going to want to do is ensure the width and height won't interfere with your tires. The # HP64VR is 1-3/4" narrower and 3" shorter than yours, so take a measurement of your tires to see how much room you have on the sides and above.

If you find these fenders don't have enough width or height for you, there is another option with the slightly longer Tandem Axle Teardrop Trailer Fenders - 15" to 16" Wheels # HP74VR.

These fenders may be more suitable as they are 72" long x 10-3/4" wide x 20-1/2" tall, which meets your width and height needs, and have a very close length. I have added links below to some video reviews for you to check out as well.
