Default Spindle Difference - early vs. late

What is the difference between early and late (non M030) wheel bearings? Can I use an '86 hub/bearing assembly with an '87 spindle?

They are different PN's, so you probably can't interchange them.

The -86's didn't have provisions for ABS, so that's one obvious difference. My guess is that spindle and hub dimensions are also different due to the different offsets, although I am not sure. They use different bearings as well.

Not something I would take a chance on, IMO.

i believe the bearings for 86 and 87+ are different.
