brakes

I had the master cylinder and booster replaced a few years ago in my 97 Hoe, and ever since, the braking has been ok in normal operation, BUT, when I need to stop in an emergency, I have to really STAND on the pedal to get the brakes engaged quickly. Bad booster, or typical hoe problem?

I can't locate the problem with a low brake pedal. Everything at the wheels has been replaced, master cylinder replaced, vacuum on power booster is good, lines bled, etc. Still get a low pedal have to push to the floor almost to stop. Any ideas?

Hi, guys! I'm thinking of buying a 2000 Tahoe Z71 (that's the tricked out off-road package they offered right before switching to the next generation, so it's essentially a '95-'99). Vehicle has 109,000 miles, is in very good shape, tires have at least another year on them, leather seating...
