87 240 DL Wagon

Replacing rotors and calipers all around. When taking the rear rotors off I had a hell of a time. Sprayed PB Blaster and after a while of cursing the rust I used a hammer and hit from behing the rotor to loosen it. I could turn the wheel but could hear something (Emer.Brk. Pads?)rubbing a little inside the rotor. After getting the rotor off (and one E.B. pad with it) I'm at a loss what to do, There's alot of rust and wondering if I have to replace the whole EB. Although the pads looked ok, there was a groove the same width of the pads in the rotors like they'd been rubbing. Any and all help greatly appreciated.
