Brake help

The brakes on my truck have been acting funny the past 2 days. Brake fluid is full and steering fluid for hydro-boost is in range. The first thing I noticed was the brake pedal got hard to press, only 1 or 2 occasions. Then it felt like the front brakes were grabbing and shuddering. Now they seem fine again and stop good. Is my hydro-boost getting ready to kill over. Man I tell you I have had this truck only about 3 months and it is a money pit. I wanted to try a Dodge because of the Cummins, now I read that the injector pump is . Man, if anyone wants to give me 13,500 for this thing they can have it.

Could be the accumulator causing the hard pedal. IIRC, it is the smal blue cylinder on the master cylinder.
