The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Hard Brake Pedal

Check the rear motor mounts.
I once had a Model A that the brake pedal was VERY hard to push, found that the rear motor mounts were not holding anything and the trans mission was sitting on the cross shaft. I've seen it on other A's as well.
Easy check is watch the shift lever when you push the brake pedal, if it moves up you know that there's a problem.
