HELP!!! Disc brake swap going horribly awry!!!

I'm in the middle of my disc brake swap and the bearings I got that are supposed to fit my spindles don't. I was told that the crossmember I purchased came off of a 1973 C10. Here are the shaft diameters and rotor diameters

Wheel bearing
Spindle: 1.37"
Rotor: 2.52"

Oil Seal
Spindle: 0.84"
Rotor: 2.06"

Are these not C10 spindles? I know they're off a square body (look exactly like my buddy's 81)

Additionally I have a lot of play between my one tie rod end and the spindle...what is up with that? I tightened the castle nuts just to the point where I could get the cotter pin through the hole.
