Hi again Simon....one more thing to think about.....fine threads vs.
coarse threads on the knock-off spinners. You can't mix BT7 and (late)
BJ8 front hubs. Just adding to your list...

Hi Simon.....sorry, no go on the bolt-right-on issue. Been there -
done that very recently. You'll need both swivel axles, flex hoses,
rotors, backing plates, hose steady posts, and maybe a couple of items
other I forget to mention. Moreover, I found that late BJ8 calipers
were sort of hard to locate. Sorry I can't paint a brighter picture....

I know that these are larger than on my MkII BT7, but will they - by any
happy chance - bolt right onto my BT7 with no alterations at all? May be
able to buy a new pair at very good price.
