OK, My newest SS is a 1987 model with a 510 table system. The unit didn't come with a upper and lower saw guard. I understand not all guards fit. Anyone have some recommendations out there? I have been looking on ebay but a bit hesitant to buy until I know more.

Bob;
Any of the sawguards for the 505,510 or 520 should work with your table system. Look at the manuals carefully for info on how to adjust the guards so the riving knife is accurately positioned behind the blade.

Here are a couple of pictures of the type of guard that works with a 510:
