Reply to "Parking brake problem"

Solved. Just as a FYI for others, here's what it took:
-I took off the cable and made a funnel of paper and poured oil through, took a few hours. The cable felt good before, but it can never hurt
-The arm on the right caliper that didn't pop right back: On the opposite side there's a plastic cap in the middle of a plastic square. Pop that of, then spray WD-40, this is where it "binds". If that's not enough (was for me), remove the lock and take out the entire arm/axle and remove rust.

When does the car industry invent a parking brake that works perfectly despite it not being used for years and it has to survive damp and dirt?
