When you take the rear rotors off, you will probably find that the park brake shoes are worn, maybe both sides, often just one side. Install new park brake shoes, and they will come with an updated retainer that will help keep them from wearing out even though they aren't being used. There is no adjustment for these park brakes at the cable, you must make your adjustment at the shoes themselves.
