Default clutch job rough to get into gear

just put a new clutch in my stock 95z daily...and i drained al the fluid from the clutch slave and refilled it with dot4 stuff...bleed it good ect

my old clutch didnt engauge till about 1/3 the way up..this one does almost right off the floor...and its rough to get into gear...every one of them...think it just still needs to be bleed or what?

a low pedal means air in there.. it should catch higher up.

put vacume in the hole in the bottom of the clutch resavoir and got tons of air out actually i think an unbelieveable amount...i think its sucking in air somewhere...i kept sucking air and it never went away...but nothing leaks any fluid?

i did get the cluth to engauge now about 1.5 inches from the floor
