Default 97 f150 right front brake caliper

I have a 97 f150 v-6,front disc and rear shoes, the right front brake caliper sharted locking up ,I installed a reman caliper and hung new pads, I didnt have anyone to helps bleed the brakes at first so I tried gravity bleeding them about a 1/2 pint for each side on the front, after this now I have a soft pedal and not much braking? I got someone to help bleed both front calipers about 7 or 8 shots each side, still soft pedal and little braking. do I need to bleed the rear brakes also? could a weak mastercycilnder caused my caliper to lock up?
thanks stranded sam
