While we don't currently carry this style wiper/bulb seal with a total width of 3" the # SR68FR is just slightly over at 3-3/16" in total width, which is honestly going to be better for your slide out.

Having worked on a lot of different motorhomes and trailers I've seen a lot where the seals either barely touch the slide out box or will not even touch when the box hits a certain angle while extending and retracting it. The whole purpose of the seal is to "wipe" the box so that bugs, sticks, leaves, etc. all stay outside of the trailer as you retract the box. Not touching or barely touching the box will allow these inside defeating the whole purpose.

The wiper portion of this seal is very pliable so it being just 3/16" longer than needed really wouldn't hurt and could end up being more beneficial.
