What brand of brake booster did you use?
Back in 2010 I bought a crappy Autozone brake booster to get it running. It has done an o.k. job until now. It feels like I'm losing vacuum when it apply the brakes. The pedal bottoms out and it doesn't stop as quickly as it used to. I checked the brake pads and there's plenty of meat on the bone. What else could it be? I'm sure it's the booster. What manufacturer have y'all gone with?

Bleed your brakes, bad booster would not cause you to pump them, bad booster would make them hard to depress and very hard to stop. You would need to stand on the pedal to get them to stop

I took it to a shop they bled the brakes I bled the brakes replaced brake line houses in front Newport News valve new master cylinder new brake booster. If you press the break once it slows it down but if you need to make an abrupt stop you have to double pump it
