No longer funny...!

Thought everything was going fine with my brakes until this morning. Trying out my secind set of front wheel cylinders and see that they leak like sieves through the brake hose orifice in the cylinder. The first set did exactly the same which tells me there is more to this problem then another set of the same manufacturers cylinders under another branded name. Both hoses bottom out in the opening of the new cylinders while they only thread 2/3 of the way in on the old ones without a drip. The old cylinders are worth crap so there is no rebuilding them to get this truck back onto the road if ever.

Edited:
Please don't start another thread on the same subject, when you have one open already.
