Stu,
If it is as described as "factory original", then TF components would be 
used as wire wheels were not offered for the TD until the TF came 
along.  The TF and late TD front ends are the same.  There was a change 
to the size of the nut at the end of the stub axle during TD production, 
so the later ones would be the same as TF.
