Hey, Patrick here. I need some advice. I have a really stiff brake pedal, which requires way too much leg strength to stop it. I replaced both front calipers, the rear driver side wheel cylinder, the brake booster and bled the brakes. After all of that I figured it would be ok, but its not. I have to use all of my leg strength to get it to stop. any ideas what might be wrong? How to correct it? Im concerned about them in a panic situation where I need to stop on a dime.

Does it seem to be any worse if the vacuum line to the booster is not hooked up?

Yeah, got enough engine vacuum to operate the booster?

Crushed metal line?
How about the flex lines front and rear? They can break down on the inside and block fluid flow both directions.
