Scott, can you explain?
I've been looking for a swappable 8 lug single wheel I-beam axle with disc brakes for some time now, still haven't found anything.

I did pickup some 8 lug dual wheel P30 front axles, thinking I may be able to swap hubs for single wheels. But that did not work as planned, the axle part is quite large, same as I have under my truck that is also from a P30 with the 5/10 lug hubs. The only differences I can tell so far are the hubs/rotors, caliper brackets, and dust shields.
I have not found a single-wheel hub to swap to these spindles.

Any ideas?
