If your right front locked up first, I would guess that either you swerved to the right or were making a right hand corner. This would allow the chassis to unload or lighten the right front wheel, allowing it to be the first to loose traction.

As far as adjusting the brake on a Prowler, there is no manual way to adjust disc brakes on a per wheel basis. The emergency brake can be adjusted.

The Prowler has a tendancy to lock the front wheels under hard braking or cornering during performance driving and it's something that you will need to learn to live with. This is why I've always been very concerned with people promoting or selling larger / better brakes for the front of the Prowlers. They are great for cosmetics but not at all good for a balanced and safe braking system in my opinion.

Just remember that brakes stop the tires, but the tires stop the car.
Softer or better traction front tires will help the Prowler brake lockup problems but beyond that there is little simple hope. A balance bar or porportioniong valve will work well but that's a little bit of work.
