Re-reading I'm seeing you are just taking about pressing hard enough to get out of park. Wood would be enough for that. You should also be able to get the parking brake to stop the rotor to safely put into park.

It sounds like the parking brake is adjusted too tight on the one side. You said you removed the p brake hardware? Eg removed the rotor and took out the brake shoes? That's a lot of work or do you just mean the external gizmos?

I had removed the rotor and removed all of the hardware, like shoe, springs.. I will try the old rotor trick..
