Stick brake pedal

Okay so I’m having a issue with my brakes, (project truck that was sitting for a few years) with motor off the brakes feel good and work fine, with the motor running sitting still the brakes feel good and seem to work fine, however if you drive down the road and hit the brake pedal you have to pick the pedal up each time, when sitting still the pedal brings itself back up. Couple of things you should know, I swapped the cab on this truck and I converted it to manual at the same time. The pedal assembly is correct for the truck and I did on the bearings and shims on it and it’s greased up, if I take the brake pedal off the brake booster arm there’s no binding at all, it’s got a good smooth swing all the way up and all the way down I’m trying to put this thing on the road and need the brakes fixed
