I agree 100%. All you need are Deadlifts and chin-ups for back development.

I would like a wider back, however I am not strong enough to do many pull ups. I can do like 5. Is that enough, or should I just stick with pull downs?

That's my problem too. What I do is just keep doing sets until you reach a certain number, say 30. Then you will start needing less and less sets until eventually you go straight through.
