Slave line popping out

Hello all, I’m hoping to get in touch with some ranger gods here.
bought a 98 ranger 3.0 with a 5spd, said it needs a slave cylinder.
so I drop the trans, change it out, put everything back together.
I bleed it enough to where I have pressure, but the pedal won’t go to the floor. It feels stiff. When I push on it more, the slave line **POPS** out. I tried another slave cylinder, (did the job twice)
Exact same thing.
i put in a new master cylinder AND slave line,
boom same exact thing.
what am I doing wrong here? Why is this line constantly popping out and feeling stiff? All of the parts are brand new.
lastly, the only stock part I can think of is the pressure plate. Everything else is aftermarket.
PLEASE help me here!

It sounds like you may not be pushing the connection together enough to get it to lock in and open the valve. It is also possible the connectors are not compatible.

Well in the connection from slave cylinder to hydraulic throw out bearing. The oring is bad on the throw out bearing side it's suppose to be like a one way valve.
