What is the connection type and size for the brake hose on the K-H pin calipers?
Thanks!

the correct hose will thread into the caliper & has a flare to seal it

The hose I purchased from the Carquest has a concave surface on the caliper end and a cooper washer in the package. The caliper has beveled surface at the hose connection, but the beveled surface is in the opposing direction and would not seal. Is this the wrong hose or is the seal actually at the copper washer?

The Carquest hose I have is SP3061.

You need to install the copper washer.  It goes between the hose and caliper.
