Brakes help.....???

Just spent the weekend under my truck updating the brakes and I'm beat.I have dis/drums dual master with a power boster under the floor. I installed a combination valve with the residual valve built in for the rear and a residual (2lb) for the front discs. I have gone thru 3 bottles of brake fluid bleeding and brakes are still not any good. I know that there may be a problem bleeding because the master cylinder is almost as low as the wheel cylinders but come on!!! To top it off I leaned over this morning and put my back out. My kids legs (well right ones) are tired from all the pumping of the pedal. I was using a combination of the pedal pumping and a hand vacuum bleeding kit. I even tried raising the front to get the cylinder higher for doing the rears. any suggestions?
