back looks solid, as long as you are making gains stick to what you have been doing.  you could substitute weighted pull ups for pull downs & throw in some deads.

You're not doing much for the lower back currently.

Try a two week rotation where you keep most of your current routine, but add a lower back excersise:

Week 1
barbell rows 3 sets
machine rows 3 sets
close grip or reverse grip pulldowns 3 sets
deadlifts 3 sets

Week 2
behind the neck pulldowns 1 set
barbell rows 3 sets
close grip or reverse grip pulldowns 3 sets
Weighted hyper extensions 3 sets

FWIW, behind the neck pulldowns are one of the best ways to fuck up your rotators.

chest supported or t-bar row

Pullups

Db Row

Rack pulls

do whatever sets and reps of these exercises and you'll get results.

What i do...

Pulldowns (to front)

Dumbbell rows

Barbell rows

Seated Row (supersetted with straight arm pulldowns)

Seems to work for me. Just research all the exercises for back and try a whole different bunch for a couple of weeks.
No doubt about it...

-deadlifts (a must)

-barbell rows (normal grip, change it with underhand grip sometimes)

-chins or pulldowns (In general something for the lats) as our friend "PANDAEMONIUM" said, avoid behind the neck.

-dumbell one-arm row (i saw that you don't have heavier dumbells than the 55's.......change it to t-bar or machine rows)

enjoy  ;)

your back is already great. this will make it greater.  :)

do a limited amount of sets for back, twice a week on a upper /lower  body split.

total weekly back volume 8-10 sets.

Rows and chins have worked the best for me.  Cant really fuck with deads too much (at least not heavy) due to a fucked up back.
