in depth rear disc brake conversion

[LAZY80]

So, I ordered the 70770 hoses from autozone and they leak where the hard line attaches. On closer inspection, it appears as if the female end is not set to hold a flared end but looks NPT? Did I get the wrong hose or are folks using an adapter? Thanks.

The female end should be m10 x 1 and have a double flare cone seat in the bottom of the threaded hole. Fits stock fittings perfectly. I got my stuff from poser, so I don't have a part #.

sometimes the line nuts are too short to engage the inverted flare .

Thanks for the info and pics.
I'm about to start this project on my '74 Cruiser, also the front, also power steering.

I'm looking into rear disc brake conversion for a 1971 FJ40. I was trying to find poser's rear disc conversion kit but his website doesn't seem to load for me (http://lcr4wd.com/). Does anyone know of a different way to look at his kit/order it?
