Stiff Brake Pedal and Burning Smell on 87 5ktq

[Bill Rowe]

I just ordered a recharged bomb from Russ cuz I suspect mine is going or has
gone bad.  Anyway I noticed the brake pedal got real stiff after a few hard
braking in an attempt to cure a front end shimmy due to potentially warped
rotors.  When I parked the car I could smell the brakes.  An hour later I
drove off and the brake pedal was fine.  Any idea what's going on?  The
burning smell would indicate that the brakes are binding but would that
cause the pedal to be stiff?  TIA
