They're the same exact spindles, just with different steering arms. There are several variations with respect to drum versus disc, steering arm bolt size (7/16 or 1/2), upper mounting boss thread size (1/2-20 or 5/8-18), etc, however they're all interchangeable within the A/F/X-body applications. Since the OP was asking about disc brakes, I wasn't including the drum spindles, however if you were to run aftermarket disc brakes, then that potentially opens those up as options as well depending on the manufacturer and/or kits.
Just as a side note, the '67 and older Nova/Chevy II spindles also look very similar to the A/F/X-body spindles, but have a different steering axis inclination, so they're not the same nor interchangeable.
