This is a 97 dodge avenger, 420a 5 speed

First off started with passenger side caliper grabbing/sticking, rebuilt caliper and guide pins, brand new disks and pads for both sides and bled it. Then found out hose was bad so I replaced the hose then bled again. Drove it out of the drive way and the passenger side is still grabbing? The wheel hub looks old but no noise or movement from it. Theres very little brake pressure too, I hear the rear drums working but very little in front.

Theres no leaks anywhere and ive rotated the tire while its suspended and it rotated freely. When engine is off the brake pedal will get hard after a couple pumps but feels weak. Like I can almost reach the floor while pressing on it.

Is there a way to check master cylinder without replacing it?

inner/outer tie rods and sway bar links are also brand new and none of the control arms pop or have any cracks in the bushings
