I bought my 2010 Yukon about a year ago and it's never had hardly any parking brakes since I've had it. The pedal has tension, so I think the cable is pulling and I'm guessing the shoes need replaced (not surprising at nearly 200k). I've been planning on replacing them but since they are under the rear rotors, I thought I should do the rear brakes at the same time. Thing is that a shop just checked the brakes and told me that the rear brake pads are fine. Is it crazy to go to all that work removing the calipers and rotors to just replace the parking brake shoes? I certainly wouldn't mind saving some money on my parts order.
