Default 1999 Bravada brake issues

the back pads were squealing so i replaced them. then the next day the rear brakes got tight and locked up. So i replaced the calipers, pads(again) and master cylinder. Now i cant get a good brake pedal. I kept bleeding and bleeding all 4 wheels and the pedal goes to the floor when i start the engine. The pedal feels good when the motor is off and i am bleeding the system. IS there anything that i have to bleed besides the 4 calipers? Thanks for you help.
I am new to this forum and new to the bravada also.
Heres some info on it:
1999 Bravada
42,000 miles
235/75R15 BFG A/T's

It sat for two years until i got it also.

Man, please have patience. Forum policy is to wait at least 24 hours before bumping your post.

Not, about your problem. It sounds like you didn't completely get the air out of the master cylinder while bench bleeding it before installation.
