Physically, our standard UTV skids are designed to work with common Mule bed dimensions, especially on the larger Pro series. However, fitment is only part of the equation. Bed capacity and overall payload must be checked to ensure that the chosen skid, when fully loaded, stays within the Mule’s limits. We will help you select a configuration that respects those ratings.
Three-seat Mule Pro models offer larger beds that can accept more skid configurations and provide room for additional gear. Smaller Mules have smaller beds and lower bed ratings, which may limit skid size and tank volume. Bed length, width, and rail layout will all affect how the skid mounts and how accessible the controls are.
Six-seat Mule configurations often allow the rear seats to fold forward to create a larger cargo area, which can be helpful for skid placement. At the same time, roll cage structures, seat hardware, and headboards can create clearance challenges for hose reels, attendant seats, or patient transport platforms. Our team can review your specific six-seat Mule to confirm compatibility.
This has to do with a California law that requires bed capacity to be limited based on the vehicle's top speed. The gas-powered Mules are rated to a 600-pound bed capacity, while the beds on the diesel models are rated to 1000 pounds, but the UTV is governed to 29 mph.
