Stupid Brake hoses....

Does this make sense to anyone out there? i ordered a set of replacement rubber brake hoses from my local NAPA store about a week ago. i finally got around to replacing my rear brake hose (its an 82 with rear drums btw) today and the fittings are the wrong size! The stock fittings are 17mm and these are 18mm! Does no one check this stuff? anyway, the part is beck/arnley 073-1008, which is the right part number according to everything i've seen. Does anyone know a company that makes brake hoses that actually fit? I was thinking about ordering a Raybestos hose from Rockauto, part #BH38128 but i'm worried that they might not fit either, and being from an online company it'll probably be a pain to return them.
