Default brake problems

I have a 2000 jeep cherokee sport, i replaced the disc brakes and noticed the calipers were cracked so i replaced them. After this i had no brakes (pedal went to floor) tried bleeding the brakes still no pedal. I have now replaced the drum brakes and springs, wheel cylinders, all brake lines, power booster and master cylinder still no brakes. I bench bled the master cylinder and i bled the brakes. I am clueless need help!! Also all parts were new and it does not have ABS.

When you pumped the brakes did you check for any leaks underneath the jeep?

Check for leaks also did you start bleeding from the wheel furthest to closest to the master cylinder

just for haha's are the bleeder screws on the front calipers at the top? Or the bottom, because they will easily mount on the wrong side.
