1993 Front Spindle replacement, need advice plzs

My bearing in the passenger front spindle seized and ruined the spindle. I want to replace the spindle with a new part because i want it to be reliable(only vehicle), so i don't want to use junkyard parts. I can't find a site to buy new oem spindles or bolt on lift spindles. I also can't find any help at the local auto parts stores or lift shops. I would like any advice or insight plz. Is there a lift spindle that will bolt on the stock suspension? I just want new spindles so the amount of lift doesn't matter to me. Where could i find oem spindles that new, and is the price difference between lift spindles not so much that lifts would be worth it. I do want to lift the truck soon, just can't drop 1 grand on one at the moment. Thanx for all the insight you can give. I also want to say you all here have helped me a lot already with the issue, thats why im here. Thanks for everything.

Used is about your only option or take your spindles to machine shop to see if they can be built-up and turned to use stock bearing size or turned to use a smaller diameter bearing
