rear disk brakes ,easly changed because the hand brake is inside the drum in the disk ,so just push out the pins and then push piston in on one side and renew pad then do the same on the other side of the piston .

Try a can of Lucas Transmission Slip - 100M - see if that helps. Something is sticking in there. This might free it up.

The reason is that the the emergency brake drums are on the inside of the disc. It will probably take a lot of force or a rubber malet to get it off!

use a C clamp to push the caliper back in.

Was the car primarily in a Southern state--no winters? If yes, it could be the wiring harness that leads to the rear wiper/stop light inside the rear tail gate. They usually break at the flex point, and short to the frame.
