Default Terrafirma fuel tank guard new $150 TF864 07740 NJ

Can't get it to fit, just been sitting here in my room for months. Too heavy to ship would cost alot to return even if they ok'd the return.

First $150 come pick it up all yours.

Did you buy it from us? We take returns if it doesn't work or isn't correct.

I don't recall, I might have it was a while ago. I'll check my emails when I get off work but I can't be sure. checked roverparts, wasnt them so im leaning towards you guys. it would have been with front a rear terrafirma diff guards that fit fine on the same order.

Did you remove the factory metal cradle before installing?

yes it was dropped before hand, the angle of the side pieces on the plate are too narrow and contact the fuel tank and it wont sit in it as per what the mechanic told me and was showing me on the piece... he said it would either have to be bent or cut but he wont do either being that its the fuel tank and obviously any problems there could be catastrophic and he doesnt want the liability for an aftermarket piece modified which i dont blame him for... and i dont have the tools to bend nor cut it nor would i be willing to do anyway. its not the first time ive had terrafirma products not fit out of the box, far as im concerned im done with that company anyway. they also sent me a ubolt that wasnt even threaded for my stearing damper, and after emails and calls, they wouldnt even respond or offer a replacement. garage ended up threading the end and putting it on loosly so i could atleast drive the truck to get a stock replacement at the stealership. terras cheap for a reason i guess!

You don't need a skid plate if you can't put it in anyways. I'm having a hard time believing that it doesn't fit, make sure it's for a D2 and not D1

No it was the correct model number for the D2, unless it was mislabeled at the factory.

Its no longer for sale, Llucky8 graciously offered to take it back and send me a new one if the specs are off.

Definatly didnt fit right, you could see where the tank was being pushed up by the side tabs instead being cupped by it.
