I used Mike Mcgauhy spindles with late 80's 1/2 tonbrakes with stock ball joints and tie rods and everything work fine. The only problem I had was when I bought the discs and rotors from the local parts store they gave me ones for a half ton. they didn't fit (too thin) and when i went back they gave me another set for a they said for a HD 1/2 ton which fit. I talked to other people who said that there is no such thing as HD 1/2ton. all I know is that they were the correct thickness and they fit perfect. Maybe I messed up using the balljoints and tie rods but they seem to work oK for now.
I used balljoints and tie rods for a 65 however.and maybe the spindles are not exactly the same as stock 87.
