Has anyone downgraded from a 8 lug axle to a 6 lug axle

Expert Reply:

It is definitely possible but I would need to know what your axle capacity is to determine if there's a 6 lug bolt pattern hub that fits it. There's really only two axle capacities that have both of those bolt patterns so if you have a 5.2k or a 6k axle you could switch out the hub to a 6 lug with the part # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K.

Hey, what did you find out about your axle capacity for the 8-lug to 6-lug swap? Once you know that, I can help confirm if the 6-lug hub will fit your setup.
