The piston travel of the vacuum brake booster displaces a certain amount of brake fluid as it moves through a full stroke, and if ALL the brake shoes are not set up "tight" enough, the booster reaches the end of it's stroke before the brakes are firmly applied, and, GUESS WHAT... hard pedal, maybe even "kickback" and a scary ride.

Set up ALL the brake adjustments properly, and see if that helps.

Also, check the "breather" or "filter" for the hydrovac and ALL rubber hoses. If a hose collapses under vacuum, or the breather filter is clogged, the system will act WEIRD.
