87 spindles in a 66 with PB Dropmember?

I have a 66 burb with a PB D member,ART arms with 87 ball joints.Have 87 reg.spindles with 1"x12" rotors.Questions: Are the spindles the same with 1" and 1.25" wide rotors? I would like to go with 13" big brake kit and want to know if I can utilize these spindles.Are the big rotors 1.25 wide also?Any help/info appreciated.Thanks

No.
Spindles rotors and calipers are all specific the to width of rotors.

You'll have to contact the maker or the 13" Big Brake kit to confirm which spindle you need,... but I'd bet money it's the 1.25" width rotor.
