To use the 85 spindles would also require the 85 centerlink and associated steering parts. (one option)
To me is seems silly to not use a set of direct bolt on conversion spindles with no other parts change.
But he has a donor parts.
But like most of these threads there is no mention of disassembly, inspecting ALL parts, and replacing everything that is bad.
That may or may not be the case.

My opinion, the ONLY junk yard usable part is the spindle and dust shield.
Core parts for everything else.
