    screw it in for more to the back, screw it out for more to the front. The actual bias adjuster might have broken and not be working.

    the bias should be ok as it was fine with other beam, but this beam is alot lower so hence thinkin i need to ajust.. would a lot lower beam make it need ajustment? hope its only ajustment needed

    Yes it will need adjustment, when the beam is lower it thinks the car is heavier at the back (boot full, passengers in) so applies more brake pressure to the rear wheels.
