take rear wheels off first< adjust parking brake shoes- second step, then see what happened, if you need more adjustments

Thats the biggest mistake most ppl make, they just adjust the cables and dont adjust the brake shoes first.

I don't think you even have to pull the wheels. Iirc there is a plug behind the rotor you can remove to access the star wheel
