re- Front right guard for 75 TD XLE
« on: March 05, 2009, 11:30:45 AM »
Hi guys, is there a specific guard for a TD 75 XLE or should any TD guard fit?  I recently purchased a guard from a wrecker.  I told them it was for a 75 TD but it is different to the guard currently on the car.  This guard that I purchased seems to flare out a bit just below the horizontal mid line, whereas the original one doesn't really flare, just curves back in towards the bottom.  Did I just get sold the wrong model guard (TC etc.)?

Any help would be great.

tc and td guards are the same thing although due to lack of quality control u can have two identical parts side by side and they be different. i think u'll find the guard u have have been stored sitting in the lower rear part of the guard causing it to bulge.
