SA/FB front big brakes question

so I am doing the re-speed brake set up on front of my car (1979 SA)

I just have a question, has anyone used the spindle and strut for a 1986-up car.

The spindle fits the lower ball joint and the tie rod fits also, you would just have to modify and change the upper strut mount.

this is just a thought, I do not actually have a strut for measurement purposes.

let me know

thanks

Since the 1st gens are rear steer and the 2nd gens are front steer, I'm not sure how you're plan on working around that or the oil pan.
