Can 65 Inch Boat Trailer Fenders Replace 63-3/4 Inch Fenders on Tandem Axle Trailer

Question

Question:

I have a banged up boat trailer fender I’m needing to replace. The issue is good fender is 63 and 3 quarter inches long on a tandem trailer with 14 inch wheels. My question: Does the 65 inch fenders you offer have any wiggle room.? Will these fit my trailer with 63 and 3quarter opening? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Rodger

Hi Rodger; you can absolutely replace your 63-3/4 inch boat trailer fenders with the 65 inch Tandem Axle Teardrop Trailer Fenders for Boat Trailers # HP34VR.

We're talking just a hair over 1/2 inch longer on either side so it won't be an issue. Finding a 100% exact match for fenders is very, very difficult so there is some wiggle room and the # HP34VR will work out for you.
