Are these parts in separate hip files?

If so, then
1) Open a 2 Houdini sessions, load one of your hip files into one session, then in the network editor select the object node you want to merge and press Ctrl + C (Copy)

2) Go to the other Houdini session and in the network editor press Ctrl + V (Paste) and you'll have that object in the session. Repeat for other files.

You can write out .bgeo with the ROP Geometry SOP node. Just use .bgeo in the file's extension.
