I believe the v has the top-hat-shaped rear rotors, with disc calipers and pads for service braking, and eety beety brake shoes inside the hat part for the parking brake. The first step generally is to inspect the brake mechanism and make sure the shoe clearances are properly adjusted and the auto adjusters, if present, are doing their job. People frequently want to jump to adjusting the actuator cable, which will usually not be the thing needing adjustment, unless Sasquatch has been stomping on that pedal and you first make sure the shoes and their adjusters are all right.
