Where are you located?

Okay, I know someone in Florida but that's a bit far at 25mph, especially with crooked front wheels. Try places that rent Mokes if you have one nearby.

There is an adjustment bolt below the front shocks (2bolts holding the shock on) loosen lower bolt then adjust top bolt by turning it slightly, it will only adjust about 1/8in maybe a little more , for camber - vertical adjustment. Toe adjustment - on the steering column Loosen the jam nut at the end of the tie rod on both sides With a wrench), rotate the tie rod as needed, which will angle the tire in or out as needed.

If you changed Axel and trying to adjust and can’t enough, you may have bought the wrong size, there is 3 different sizes for different years they are about 1/2+- different in size or more.

I thought the website was gonna send me an email so I missed this for months

Anyways, I replace the 10 heavy AGMs for 2 lithiums that go under the hood.
My setup is 13kWh and same voltage as oem. LG batteries.
I was able to drive 52 miles driving like I stole it on my test mule at 35 mph
I’m in SoFlo so Expect some range reduction if you’re in a hilly area, but dropping over 500lbs of weight helps a lot even for hill climbing.

I have an issue with my empower controller. When I come off throttle, it continues to accelerate for a few seconds and cannot figure out how to fix this. I have changed every setting that I could guess would help but can't find the correct one. Please let me know if anyone can advise?

Look at the Braking Time after loosing the throttle setting or the torque

[gregb143]

What should those be set to? In addition to the continued acceleration, there is a delay for acceleration to begin when pressing the throttle.

Try changing
//F21，Deceleration Rate(10 - 40000） = 700
//F22，Braking Deceleration Rate(100 - 40000） = 3000

you can try to set both at 10000 or maybe 15000 (both f21=15000 and f22=15000) or you can start more conservative and go up in numbers little by little until the problem is gone.

If those are already set, try setting F45 to something like 200 or 180

that will probably help you with the continued torque issue.
As far as the delay on the pedal, I don't think there is nothing you could do there.

The FIRST thing to do before playing with the controller reprogramming
is of course to replace the 700 lb lead weights with a lithium battery.
one option is from Lithiummoto com
The increased voltage may increase the speed a little. Certainly the acceleration and range.
The other controller option is maybe to swap it out to a 72V controller.
