Default Durango brakes need help

Hello all I’m having problems with my brakes so i let me tell you what I’ve done to it already.
1, I've changed the brakes all the way around
2, I had to change the passenger front brake line
3, I had changed both front brake calipers
4, I had to change both rotors on the front
5, I've changed. The master cylinder and brake booster.
6, I bled the brakes and i still don’t have any front brakes
Now I’m open to suggestions

Is the brake light in the dash still on? May need to reset the proportioning valve.

First and foremost, are you SURE you have the calipers on the CORRECT side? If you got them swapped, you will never get all the air out. (I'd point and laugh if you did if I hadn't done the same thing myself!) The bleed valve needs to be at the top on the cylinder. If you have them swapped, it will be lower creating an air bubble.

After that, did you bench bleed the master before hooking the lines up? How did you bleed the lines?
