I have a 87, Nissan Pathfinder 4wd. 443,178 mileage .And about 4months ago the back brakes started to lock up. I thought it could be the shoes ,so i changed them out.i also noticed on one side the roder had been dug into by the brake shoe.and when i push the brake pedal to the floor it has no compression.unless i pump it. wat do you think could be the problem.I could really use the advice.

You seem to be mixing up drums and rotors...You are saying the rear drum was scored? Or do you have disc brakes in the rear? Either way the hydraulic unit needs to be replaced...
