The ball joint points are the same in 78-86, for 87(86.5) on they were changed with the big difference being the lower ball joint being 'inverted'. The control arms also changed for 87 on. The suspension 'geometry' is either early or late.
What do you have planned? If you're doing a custom build you might consider the brake mounting too, later ones are radial mount for the Porsche brembo calipers but very early ones might be easier to fab brake adapter brackets.
