93 F350 front spindle HELP

Hi guys. I'm converting my dodge to used Dana 60 F350 knuckles, brakes and hubs. One spindle spun outer bearing. Called junky yards around, nothing. car-part.com - has new one for $450, wow... What's my options? Can you tell by the picture if I can reuse it? Good bearing going in and out pretty easy, almost as easy as second good spindle.
I see some guys use punch on it to hold new bearing better, or locktite of some sort, or even dana 50 spindles the same??? I just don't see ford guys talk about it much. Is that not common?
Appreciate your replies.

And I don't know why picture shows at the post preview but not now. I think it will work if you click on the link. Thanks

You can buy a spicer spindle for less than that. I'd do some more looking. I'm not positive but I don't believe a d50 spindle is the same

Looking at the spindle probably could polish that on a lathe
A Dana 50 spindle will work
