Problem is the driver side banjo bolt fits but the passenger side goes straight in barely touching the treads and the first set is still to big for the bolt hole. They are remanufactured calipers. Is it possible that the hole was stripped and it was retreaded when it was remanufactured. I think the 73 calipers use a 7/16-20 banjo bolt. I have no clue what to do guys.

Dunno if this helps, but iirc, the passenger side caliper on the '72 takes a smaller hose than the driver side. Strange, I agree, but I recall running into this several years back.
