my cars down 80m on the back and every time i press the brake pedal the back brakes stick so im guessing its the brake bias so how do i get it to work as it should again? or it is better to just take off the spring?

just read related threads and from the sound of its a bolt that you loosen then slide towards the back of the car until the spring has just enough tension to not move about?

that right?

If your down 100mm the bias cant be adjusted far enough to stop the rear left locking......
Anyone else been able to sort it out?
