I would suspect and investigate the E brake cables as being rusted up and frozen. When you look at the cables up at the front where the lever is, does it look like the inner cable is moving relative to the housing?

My truck has been sitting for an extended time and the rear brakes have become secured to the drums so well that I can't break them loose by rocking the truck or trying to break it loose by slowly letting out the clutch and revving the engine. 
What is a sure way to break the rear wheels free w/o breaking or damaging anything?
