Upgraded rear brakes to Powerstop Z36 after putting them on my front brakes. Much improved stopping power and better pedal feel.
I also replaced the emergency brake shoes following the video guide below. By far the most difficult part is reattaching the shoes with the pin, spring, and button-disc. Since I didn't have the special driver tool referenced in the video, I finally was able to use a pair of needle nose pliers (slightly separated) to push in and rotate.
By replacing the emergency brake shoes and adjusting the tensioner, my emergency brake lever pull is now less to fully engage.
