What makes MLX different from other front end devices?In short, the MLX is adjustable to a wide range of UTVs, installs and uninstalls in under one minute, does not bolt on to any part of the UTV's frame, and does not reduce your UTV’s ground clearance.
-
What is the maximum weight capacity of the MLX? What about the MLX implements/attachments?The MLX is rated for a maximum load capacity of 350 pounds. Even if your winch is able to pull more weight, the Mod Lift X and its implements are rated and tested for up to 350lbs only. How much can the pallet forks lift? The forklifts are rated for 350 lbs total weight. What tongue weight can the ball mount/receiver handle? We rate the ball mount attachment for 350 lbs of tongue weight. A rough estimate of your trailer’s tongue weight is 10% of the trailer’s total weight, but refer to your trailer’s manufacturer or owner’s manual if you’re not sure. How much weight can the cargo carrier hold? The cargo carrier is rated for 350 lbs total weight.
-
What comes with a purchase of the Mod Lift X?Your purchase of the Mod Lift X comes with a pair of 30” pallet forks, and a ball mount/receiver. You will need to supply your own trailer ball. The ball mount accepts a ball with a 1” or less shaft diameter (typically, 1 7/8”, 2”, or 2 5/16”). Head over to our Shop page to see other MLX implements and accessories. We will be releasing more implements in the future (some in the very near future!). Make sure to follow our socials and subscribe to our newsletter to hear about new releases.
-
Is the MLX available at any brick-and-mortar stores near me?We’re actively looking for new authorized dealers and will be growing the MLX family in the near future. You can check out our current authorized dealers on the Find a Dealer page. Make sure to follow our socials or subscribe to our newsletter to be notified as we add new dealers (and release new implements/accessories)!
-
Do I need heavier springs on my front end in order to use the MLX?Not necessarily. However, just like using a snow plow on your UTV, the added weight to the front will cause for front shocks to compress more the heavier the load. If you like, you can reduce the compression by inserting coil spring spacers like the ones shown below. These are a $25 extra that are specifically made for using the snowplow on a UTV, and can be purchased HERE.
-
How fast can I drive with the MLX on my UTV?For safety purposes, we recommend a maximum speed of ten miles per hour while transporting a payload or moving a trailer. Also, always use the safety pins and secure your payload with rope, bungee cords, or other tie down mechanism. When the MLX is installed but not carrying any payload (or moving a trailer), there are no speed limitations if it is in the upright position, secured with safety pins, and the forks are properly stowed.
-
How are loads secured when I use the pallet forks?You secure loads with your preferred tie down mechanism, e.g., bungee cords or rope.
-
Is the MLX waterproof? How do I maintain my MLX?The Mod Lift X is constructed from powder-coated steel. Without a doubt, powder coating is tough (much tougher than regular paint), but we intend for you to be rough with the MLX, and over time the powder coat may chip. When that happens and the steel is exposed to moisture, it will show rust but that will not impact the integrity or functionality of your MLX. If you want to keep your MLX looking new, we suggest using a powder coat touch-up pen, which you can find online. As for being waterproof, the MLX itself is fully submersible, though please note that attachments with electronic components will not be submersible.
-
Can I keep a snowplow or other front-end attachments attached to my UTV and also install the MLX?No. The MLX uses the brush guard, winch, and entire front end of your UTV. However, we will be offering a snow-plow implement that will be compatible with the MLX.
-
Is there a shovel or bucket attachment?Not yet, but we have loads of ideas and a few awesome attachments currently in R & D that we anticipate rolling out Fall/Winter 2023-24. We currently offer four heavily-tested attachments: the ball mount, pallet forks, cargo carrier, and Garbage Getter. Make sure to follow our socials and subscribe to our newsletter to hear when we release new implements!

Is the MLX patented?Yes, the Mod Lift X is patented under US Patent No.: 11,400,850 B1.
-
How do I know if the MLX fits my UTV’s brush guard?In true modular fashion, the MLX is designed to fit most UTV brush guards. However, to best serve our customers, we are 3D modeling common UTV brush guards, enabling us to show and tell you that the MLX will fit! Please check out our Compatibility & Fitment page for brush guards we have tested. There is a detailed explanation of proper fitment embedded within the 3D models. We will continuously be updating this list and adding models of a wide range of brush guards. To be certain of fit for brush guards not currently on this list, please submit your brush guard for verification by clicking HERE. If you have any other questions about fit and compatibility, please contact us!
-
How do I use my MLX and the different implements?The implements will be attached in different ways. For example, the ball mount and forks drop into the MLX main unit. The cargo carrier is attached on top of the forks, via a clevis pin.
-
How do I assemble and install my MLX? How long does it take?When you get your new Mod Lift X, you'll need to assemble it according to our Assembly, Fitment, & Install Guide. It should take about thirty minutes to assemble your MLX. After that, it's quick and easy! Sixty second install, sixty second uninstall. If you have any questions about the process not answered in the guide, please reach out to us on our Contact page.
-
How does the MLX work?The MLX unit hangs onto your vehicle's brush guard and uses your vehicle's front-mounted winch to provide power. After installing the MLX onto your brush guard and hooking it up to your winch according to the Install Guide, you use your winch to raise and lower the MLX.
