Default 89 abs axle to 90 non abs brake calipers

changed the non abs vac disco d30 to a temp spare 89 abs d30 from a limited.
the knuckles are different on the 89 for abs, my 90 calipers and pads won't fit into the knuckles.

so, my options are either go get new calipers and pads or swap out my knuckles and use my near new calipers and pads i just installed with very little use. i even did ball joints on the old axle.

but now can't find my ball joint press.

i'll have to get abs calipers so the pads will slide on the knuckles then the caliper goes on over those, but will a non abs booster (upgraded to 97 booster) work with these calipers.

so it's either change the knuckles or buy new calipers and pads... what to do...
