"As a result, with the rod, the brake disc won't fit on (it fits just fine without it). I spent about 5 hours on this today."

Did you read my note IE.
"Note: I have given up on occasion and taken an angle grinder to the spreader bar to shorten it (and deepen it's "V"'s), in order to allow it to drop in under less spreading of the shoes."

Basically, if the parking brake cable has been completely slackened at the back of the parking brake lever (in the cabin) and the rotor still won't go on, then I used "drastic" measures.
