Looking for Roof and Windshield for Mule Pro-FXT

Looking for Roof and Windshield for Mule Pro-FXT - 07/16/20 02:53 PM

I just bought a new Kawasaki Mule Pro-FXT. Base model with EPS did not come with windshield or roof.

Thought I would ask here to see if anyone has upgraded their roof or windshield from OEM/Stock and has one they no longer need?

Thank you!

I know a guy in College Station that may have a roof for sale. I'll ask if that's not too far for you.

If you're going to trailer it, I would recommend biting the bullet and putting a metal roof on it.

I will, but just wanted something a little more cost friendly to start.....mama is already giving me the stink eye. I have bought a Mule, a trailer to haul it on, and a container to store it in this month alone. Not to mention the dozen or so purchases on Amazon for seat covers, fire extinguisher (and holder), solar charger, etc...

Best roof is by Fortress out of Waco. I had mine installed at Kawasaki city in Irving. Sturdy enough to walk on top. As for windshield, I ordered off of Amazon a flip down from A&S Audio and Sound $355. It was easy to install and has performed great.

Love my Fortress. That insulation makes a lot of difference.

Fortress roof and tip out window. Note that you will need to get HD springs if you go the non plastic fortress roof route.

A cheaper route on the window is Superatv Tipout, is good but not as good as fortress glass tip out

I don't know that you need HD springs just for the metal roof but the HD springs are 10X better than the stock ones, especially if you lift them.

They have some body roll when you get them up high. When there's 20 bags of corn in the back they are a huge help. And we stand on the roof to fill feeders. It's a lot more stable with the HD springs.

What tires are those? Are you rubbing?

BIL,

I have 30” motoclaws with superatv arched arms. They will rub on the very front of wheel well without HDsprings/elkas when you hit a good dip.

I have the same roof and windshield. Both are good products.

Rub like a SOB without the shocks. Turned all the way up. The arms move it forward and it runs under the headlight. Have to go nice and slow

None of the good stuff for these are cheap.

Fortress tip out windshield.
Triple c welding for roofs.
Elka shocks will give the lift, weight support and ride quality.
