Unlock Your Mule’s Potential: The Ultimate Guide to the Kawasaki Mule 4010 Bolt Pattern

 

The bolt pattern is a critical measurement for any wheel upgrade. It tells you how many lugs your wheel has and the distance between them. For the Kawasaki Mule 4010, the bolt pattern is 4/137. This means your Mule has 4 lug nuts, and the diameter of the circle they form is 137mm.

Understanding the bolt pattern is the first step to ensuring your new wheels will mount correctly and safely. 📌

Don’t make the mistake of assuming all UTVs have the same bolt pattern. The Kawasaki Mule Pro-FXT, for example, has a different bolt pattern of 4×156. Always double-check your specs before you buy!

“Measure twice, buy once. This is especially true when it comes to your UTV’s wheels.”

Beyond the Bolt Pattern: Other Key Specs

While the bolt pattern is essential, there are a few other measurements you need to consider for a successful wheel and tire upgrade.

Specification	Measurement
Lug Nut Size	12mm x 1.25mm
Stock Tire Size	23×11-10
Stock Wheel Size	10×8

These specs are for the stock Kawasaki Mule 4010. If you’re planning on a significant size upgrade, you may also need to consider a lift kit to avoid rubbing and ensure proper clearance.

Upgrading your tires can dramatically improve your Mule’s performance on different terrains. 🌲

Considering a Wheel Offset?

The wheel offset is the distance between the mounting surface and the centerline of the wheel. The stock Kawasaki Mule 4010 has a 4+3 offset. Changing the offset can give your Mule a wider stance and improved stability.
