when stepping on pedal , you need to apply more force than normal to stop then the pedal is hard , it doesnt go to floor ,and then again it doesnt seem theres enough brake pressure to wheels i did bleed system all brakes grab with wheels off the ground .. any thoughts thx

check the vacuum lines to the booster?
 






there good , the pedal is hard when braking , how do you check for a leaking booster.., i dont hear any vac leak, maybe ill just bleed the front brakes , i did the rears , i see you can only bleed the rears with motor running
 






I have found I need to bleed the whole system meaning all 4 brakes as I have never gotten by with just one axel set. you may have gotten some air when bleeding the rears in the fronts.
 






Pull the plug that goes into the power booster with line still attached. If you have a strong vaccum at the plug, you have a bad power booster.
