Default Brake hoses

Can anyone tell me if the thraeded end of the rubber brake hoses are all the same front and rear for a 69,or are they different.
I have 3 lines and ordered one from Corvette central ( it's shorter than the ones I have),and they all screw into the front calipers,but not the rears. Any advice? Thank you

Never Mind...A closer look at the AIM magnified on the computer gave me my answer. Invaluable

Your rubber (or flexible) brake hoses attach to the front calipers. The rear calipers have hard lines (steel) that attach to them. Then further down the line there is a flexible hose.
