Help With Brakes

I have been helping a buddy with his 2007 F150 we put a 6" lift on it and extended front brake lines and now we can't get the brakes to bleed. I have bled a lot of brake lines and i cant figure these out. we have bled almost 4 quarts of brake fluid through them and they still wont hold pressure. we have started at the passenger rear and then driver rear and then passenger front and then driver front just like it says to do. there are no leaks anywhere in the system. after you bleed the brakes if you wait a few seconds you can push the pedal all the way to floor. anyone had this problem before and if so how did you fix it?

Curious about this. Are you pulling the fluid through with a vac?
