If the BJ's are the OE 67 size, you'll prob need to research (ask CPP) what outer tie-rods are required.
Not spindle adapters; tie rod adapters. An adapter sleeve simply allows different thread size inner/outer tie-rods to work together. It was common to use the later disc brake outer tie rods that utilize larger thread diameter vs the earlier drum brake (smaller thread) tie-rods. You can't just switch to disc brake inners & outers because the earlier drum brake truck drag-link has to fit the inners (the smaller diameter inners).
Here's the info you should review. For the record, this in the FAQ section of the forum:
