Hello fellow podders,
We had a blowout on our last trip with our RP178 and lost our fender. I’ve been scouring the internet for a replacement for 3 months now and can’t find anything but fenders that are 9 inches wide. I’d be so grateful for any options or suggestions at this point. Thanks

I bought mine fron e-trailer.  They are black plastic though, and I dont remember exactly which ones.  They have a very big selection.  Jon

I have an RV Parts and Accessories Catalog.  On page 909 they list round galvanized steel fenders that measure 9"W x 31"L x 13"H that will fit a 14" or 15" wheel.  The item # is 618-17900G.  A local RV outlet should be able to order this or you should also be able to do an internet search for this catalog and order directly.

The previous owner blew a tire.  I pop rivetted an aluminum sheet over the missing section of the fender.  I'd like to completely replace the fender.  I cannot locate where to find a 2017 Forest River, RPOD 179, 14" fender to replace the damaged fender on my TT.  etrailer does have a similar size but it is not exact.  And etrailer's fender while steel (not plastic) appears to have rounded edges on both sides of the fender.  The fender on the Forest River RPOD is rounded on the outside and flat on the inside (about 3/4" flat).  By being flat on the inside, they are drilled for holes and screwed in from the fender directly into the exterior of the TT.  This makes a tight and great fit to the TT.  etrailer's solution (with the rounded edge) is to put angle brackets on.  I guess that might work but I wish we could find on this forum the actual fenders used on the RPODs. With the flat interior side of the fender.
