Jim -

If you get the full axle assembly + hubs, disc and calipers from a
BT7/BJ7/BJ8 you can bolt the whole thing up.  The trick is to find the
whole kit used somewhere.

That being said, if you just need the hubs, why not just replace them?
 Brakes on the BN1 are pretty decent for normal driving.
