When my factory issue Ultegra 9 cassette wore out on a Ram, I slapped on
a SRAM 8 speed and happily went on my way. No issues and I stll have
more gears than I ever actually use.

While I need to replace my chain now, I was wondering if swapping out
my 9 speed chain and cassette to an 8 speed chain/cassette would be a
good idea for better friction-ing while I am at it.
I hear the cogs are wider apart which makes for truer shift and less
auto-shifting.
My 9 speed cassette and Silver shifter does well, but I do get some
auto-shifts, probably because I don't always land the chain squarely
on the next cog and I am wondering if going to an 8 speed would help a
bit.
Anything I need to know about this, or just swap the parts and adjust
the derailer limit screws if needed in case the cassette width differs
from the existing 9 speed? I am guessing the Silver shifter would be
fine for 8 speed. I plan to keep the same toothcount for the biggest cog.
Any info is appreciated.
