Dave,
If it's even possible to swap the hubs out, you would still have to do something about the fact that your '87 donor has emergency/parking brakes on the front wheels and the '88 you want to refurbish has them on the rear. This means that your donor '87 rear axle has no hardware for e-brakes, and most likely, your '88 brakes wouldn't fit on it and the cables for the e-brakes would be yet another ordeal. That's bad news. It has all the earmarks of being non-interchangeable.
I could be wrong, but I'd look for an '88-'93 donor rear axle.
Hope this helps!
