Default rear brake not working??

I am having some problems with my rear brakes. I have adjusted the ARM and the cables and it seems that the shaft that goes into the back of the brake is seized up. Is this just a good time for a tear down clean and change the shoes? And is it possible to get everything moving again or am I in for a rebuild?

I had the same problem, I just tore it down an cleaned it up now they work, I also had to move tha brake arm on tha cam back a lot becuz my lines were stretched. My brake pads were fine so I didn't change em. Good luck!
