The biggest problem with the p-brake is the cables seize from rust.
If both brakes are dragging, check the front cable. If only one is dragging, check that rear cable from the split to the wheel.
If you are going to replace the Park brake, save time and CUT the cable(s). You will likely find one or more of the cables frozen (rusted). There are three cables.
If you are going to repair, find out which cable is frozen, cut it out, and replace it.
