Alfetta rear brakes lock up



I'm having some trouble with the rear brakes locking up under somewhat
heavy braking.  Car is currently setup with early GTV6 torsion bars &
springs at approximately the stock ride height.  Shocks look like
original green Boge units.  Brake pads, rotors, flexible lines & fluid
are up to snuff.  I did have to disconnect the parking brake from the
calipers to mount it up front & am not sure if I have it adjusted
correctly.  Would this affect the bias or cause the rears to lock up?
It's really not a good thing ripping down some twisty wet road at
midnight having the rear end lock up going into a corner.  Any help
would be appreciated.

Cheers,
