5-lug to 8-lug 2wd hubs? 85' Suburban

Hey guys, I just picked up a 1985 Suburban 1/2 ton 2wd. Down the line I am planning on swapping in a 14-bolt dually axle (8-lugs) and was wondering what all would be needed to convert the front. I'm not sure if the front end is alot different between the 1/2 ton and the 3/4 ton 8-lug trucks of my year. Like grabbing a dually pickup's front hubs for the dually front rims. I would think I would just need to swap out the 5-lug hub for an 8, but wanted to see if anyone had any information, thanks!
