8 lug crown vic mod?

has anyone tried or thought of making the crown vic swap into a 3/4 ton and keeping the 8 lug wheels?

With a 9 inch is pretty easy to just have the existing axle flanges redrilled for the different bolt pattern.

As for the 8 lug wheels dunno about that, isn't the axle spacing different to accomodate the hubs and huge brake drums? I.E flange to flange is shorter for a D60 than a 9 inch?
