How to install a specific version of Node on Ubuntu?

The n module worked for me.

Run this code to clear npm’s cache, install n, and install the latest stable version of Node:

sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n stable

And: https://www.npmjs.com/package/n

To install a specific version of node:

sudo n 6.11.2

To check what version:

node -v

You might need to restart
