Tahoe rear E brake

Tahoe's have a know problem of the rear brake backing plates rusting out and causing noise. The backing plates must be replaced. Several people seem to find the E brakes don't work after they replaced the backing plate. I've always found the problem is that they lost the pin that is under the adjuster pad. This video should help you identify if that is your problem.

Do you have to take the axle out to change the e brake pads?

No, not to change the E brake parts, only to change the backing plate

Yea I just was replacing some lights and saw both backing plates rusted and falling apart. I wonder what the local shop is going to say?
