You have a 3/4 ton if model 3600.
Hubs do not interchange with 1/2 ton.
Hubs do interchange with 1 ton, still 8 lug.

Compare front spring width, you may be able to swap entire front axle from 1/2 ton. You can for 48-54, I’m not sure on 55.

Also nothing wrong with having a 3/4 ton and 8 lug wheels. Why do you want to downgrade your truck?
