"Late '85" is not the same as '86~'91.

I have a fairly early '85 and it has the cast suspension but steel coolant pipes and the early style parking brake handle. The spindles on that one are the same as my "Late '84" types. Early '84 spindles use a different size outer wheel bearing than the late '84 or '85.
