Default Rear wheel hub removal

I need to replace both rear wheel hubs on my 04 Sonata, and I was able to get them off, almost. I removed the rotor, then the caliper, then the bracket that holds the caliper. I then removed the 4 bolts that hold the wheel hub assembly in place. With a little persuasion, the hub assembly dropped free (still attached to the parking brake cable)

Here is where my problem is. How do I remove the wheel hub from the parking brake assembly? Is it just pressed into it? (By parking brake assembly, I am referring to the piece that has the parking brake shoes attached)

It looks like the parking brake/backing plate assembley would go between the new wheel hub and where the wheel hub fits into the control arm (or whatever it is called) on the car.

The parking brake assembly is so rusted, I thought about buying new ones, but Hyundai wants $114 each (part # 582518000 and 582528000) and wondered if there is any place to get these parts other than a dealer?
