Default rear disc brakes

Hello. I just bought new rotors and pads for my '95 Z28. I was thinking it would be just like the front set that I replaced last summer, but my neighbor warned me that it's a huge pain because of the emergency brake (he has a '94 Z28). Could anyone tell me what I need to do with the emergency brake when I go to change the pads and rotors? Any helpful tips or tools that might make it easier (and keep me from yelling obscenities and throwing things) ? Thanks.

IJust replaced my rear pads and rotors on my 95z a few weeks ago, its the same as the fronts but the caliper is a little smaller. All you have to do is make sure the E-Brakes down and your good to go.

I got the rotors and pads installed last night, without too much difficulty. Looks like I was worried about the potential emergency brake problems for nothing. The emergency brake equipment made it somewhat more difficult to get to the bolts, but not a big deal. Thanks. Looking forward to getting back on the road and working towardanother speeding ticket.
