Default 97 lsi wagon parking brake annoying rub

Hi , 1st post here, has anyone experienced an annoying rubbing of the e brake shoes against drum while driving. Make it sound like a helicopter based on the speed traveling, considering having inner drum (rear disc brake ) turned, or finding junkyard original rotors and servicing them. Never should have tossed the originals. These are new aftermarket rotors, believe one side is the culprit. Could possibly be sticking caliper, or slide pins but I doubt it. Any wisdom appreciated.

More likely rust "creep" on backing plate - especially if you live in rust belt. Rust builds up between knuckle flange and backing plate and causes backing plate to swell pushing shoe flanges out. Inspect real close - look on inside of hat for rub marks. Also be sure park brake cable/spring is behind the retainer at bottom of flange.

It doesn't take much - I missed it the first time I ran across one - look for rub marks on the lip of the hat too - sometimes just the backing plate is rubbing in one spot.

Default Rust on backing plate

Does this involve removing 4 bolts attaching plate to knuckle, looks like I may be able to do so without pressing hub out?

Default Annoying noise fixed

I’m a dodo, the noise was the passenger rear bearing, for sure I thought it was brake related, because of the voom. voom voom rotary sound. I kept my faith in a very recent bearing replacement and it was a fail. Junkyard spindle from a 02 Impreza rs back in the game . Hope to never deal with rear bearing again. Good news Ujoint replaced and 8 bought new calipers although May return. Thanks I’m a happy man
