brake line help

i bought this kit of ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...TODAY.m238.lVI
not sure if it is the kit or what but i cant get the fronts to stop leaking where the bolt goes to caliper.... and the rear line will not fit because the steel hard line on my car is a male fitting and there is not a female fitting on the one they supplied me just a bolt hole like fronts...?
suggestions please
thanks gary

RE: brake line help

You HAVE installed the copper washers on both sides of the hose where it mounts to the caliper correct?

HMMMMM....WAIT I know!!! try using an impact gun to tighten them..........[&:].....no actually check to see if you got the washers installed like pro50sc says and as for the rear line.. you can go down to the local parts store and buy the brake parts there are brass adapters.. fish through the bins until you find the right one..I've done that before
