Because most of the braking is done by the front discs I'd be doing them first if not all at once. You probably will feel a difference and may need to get used to lighter pedal pressing.... Enjoy!

I bought the lines from Amazon. They had them for $82.85 plus free super saver shipping.
They were expected to ship Feb 4 to Feb 10, however I got them TODAY 
I didn't take them out of the package, but I noticed that the rears are female/female and the front are female/banjo. I thought there were all female/banjo. I never really looked at the rear caliper lines

They all should be female/banjo. Sounds like you got a set of lines for a J-Body.

The package says "Sunfire, Cavalier, Alero"
Could I just use a brass union fitting?

The hose you have is with two female 10mm fittings, the Alero has a 3/8-24 thread on the line and a 10mm banjo. You could adapt it, but it will just end up being a mess and not cost effective.

Should I just return these and get the Goodridge ones?
EDIT::I'll probably just return these. There's no point in keeping them if they are not going to work, or cost more to adapt them to work. I'm a little pissed that they are listed as fitting an "N" body. they probably fit an N with rear drums

Yeah but I need rear brakes now! and the Fronts are due soon, but I'm holding off as long as I can, or until before ASS  (but they won't last that long anyway)
