the hoses fitted to the 2 pot calipers will fit the 4 pot calipers , undo the bolt going through the hose connecting it to the calipers , fit new copper washers and fit

Where the brake pipe fits the old single pot caliper there is two sort of prongs that stop the pipe from turing or moving on the newer 4 pots the two prongs are not there but there is a sort of bolt hole?

Can anyone advise me on what to do?
