71 C-10 front disc breaks

This project started out with changing the Master Cylinder. When I got to the front to bleed, the bleeders wouldn't break loose, so I ended up doing rotors, calipers and breaks. When I was done with the front breaks I reblead the MC front and then went to the bleeder on the caliper. For some reason I can't get the right front to bleed. The left front will bleed fine. Nothing on the right. I took the bleeder off and still nothing. Tried loosening the hose and nothing. The right side brake hose is pretty tight. The only way to get it on is to take off the caliper and bring it closer. I wonder why I can't get any break fluid through the right side?
