Look up the OEM part numbers for the CV joints on
www.hondapartsdeals.com for the 85 and 87 accord. If the numbers are identical, then you can definitely use them.

I used car-part.com to check donor vehicles. It indicates that only 86-89 years are donors for CV axle. BTW, a used axle can be had for < $30. May be hard to find a really good axle for a car that old. I''ve found that it''s best to rebuild your own axle w/ new boots and grease, if the CV joints are smooth.
good luck
