I haven't heard of one, but I've often wondered about it. It would require quite a bit of work.
Do you want it for soft fields?

yes that was my thinking, I have an angle valve IO-360, so little extra weight up front.
My home airport is paved, but several in the area are grass, and not quite so smooth as pavement.
Wondering if the RV10 nose fork might be compatible but I don’t know what size of tire it uses.

The RV-10 nose gear is the same size as the 8A main gear – and in my opinion way too big for the 8A. I’ve landed my 8A on many grass strips without a problem.
