Stiff Brakes

hey guys new here and just curious if anybody else had this problem, brakes are in good shape and so are the rotors, the problem is the pedal is stiff, it takes a lot of pressure on the pedal for them to work. Even at a light on an incline I have to stand on them so I don't roll. Would a fluid flush make them any better or any suggestions? 0h 2000 110k

RE: Stiff Brakes

If it a gas motor, check to see if it is getting vacuum to the booster. Do you work on the truck or have it done??

RE: Stiff Brakes

I am having the same problem with my dad's excursion, he has a 2005 with the 6.0L turbo diesel, any suggestions or should I check the same things as with the gasoline engine?

My 04 with the V10 has a similar issue. Curious to hear responses.
