Default Extended brake line question with install

So I installed my extended brake lines today. Used the write up for installing and bleeding. went ok. I had to do the front driver side twice because it wasn't tighten the first time and I had fluid leaking. got that done, bled all 4 (starting with back pass side) and filled up a small bottle each time with no bubbles. When I test drove the jeep it felt like the pedal went about halfway down. Is this normal? I checked and have no leaking, reservoir is full. Ami missing something??

Sounds like you need to bleed them more thoroughly, bud. It's NOT normal.
