when you lower it, you shoudnt have to adjust it as it is a self adjusting valve mate.

Yeah its self adjusting but i thought when you lower your cal it fools it into thinking weight is in the back so it applies more pressure to the rear shoes even though you dont have people in the back and can result in the rears locking up easy......

Look at the threads at the bottom of this.
There are a couple of brake bias valve ones there.
This has been discussed loads of times and you should be able to find out everything you need to know.
