99 Silverado break HOSE not threading.

[Nate26]

I found a pin hole in my driver side front break hose. I took it off and got a new hose for it from autozone and the new hose will not thread onto the line, can someone help on any reasons why I can't get the upper hose to thread onto the line..?

Could be the wrong hose.

 

They made the old and new body style for the 1999 model year, they may have given you the wrong hose.

I got the old one with the metal piece on the end (45 bend on it) and it didn't want to screw on either.

Now I have the other hose and it's not threading either.. I don't know what to do and I dont have the money to take it to a shop

Take the old house in, match it to the test screw/bolt test device-then play matchup at the parts dept

It can also be that you aren't getting the connection lined up just right.  I remember having some difficulty getting the brake line fittings to go into the ABS controller, as the fitting wasn't quite lined up exactly straight.
