Question

Are you still on standard calipers at the front?

If so, the hoses you have are probably wrong......contact the supplier.

If not, did you remember to tell the supplier when you bought, exactly what calipers you have?

Len at "Subaru4You" near Thatcham had the same issue with my front hoses so couldn't fit them when he did my brakes.

At the 60K service last week he did fit them as he recieved the correct ones.

Not sure if this helps?

regardless of caliper, the hose fitting to steel pipe should be the same............

Yes that is the right kit , I have some here and have just looked , if the rears fitted then the only reason the fronts wont is if the wrong ends have been fitted onto the hose , they should be a M10 x 1 , go to your local motor factors , they should have a selection of bleed nipples there , screw one in and see what thread it is , a 3/8 unf is a similar thread , perhaps they have put them on instead...
