Lil Mule Badlands ATV Trailer review and field test by ATVPT's Patrick Saunders. Trailer was provided courtesy of Lil Mule Trailer Company.


Lil Mule Trailer Company had to prove to us here at ATVPT that this lil' workhorse will keep going from start to finish. The Lil Mule Pull Behind ATV Trailer is designed for tough trail rides, so it can get you where you want to go and back again. It comes standard with two (2) 2.5 gallon gas cans to keep your vehicle moving on the road. Plus!

Lil Mule Statements:

  • Durable and dependable design means this trailer will go where you want when you want. With the standard 60/40 split on the tub, the Lil' Mule Badland is capable of being towed at 60mph. Plus, with a 1500 pound capacity, you can take the world with you when you go.
  • Impressive 15inches of ground clearance that comes standard. With a unique design, and a patented Mono-Spring suspension, your Lil' Mule Trailer will follow you everywhere.
  • With a uniquely placed leverage point, the trailer can easily be dumped even when fully loaded. By allowing the load to be over centered on the tires, and then allowing the tires to roll forward during the dump, anyone can dump a fully loaded trailer, even with over a 1,000 pounds of dirt. This patented operation makes even yard work a joy.
  • The seamless "poly" cargo box measures an impressive 30" x 60" (max) with 15" sides, holds about 11 cubic feet of cargo, and is 20" off the ground. This unit comes with tie-down rods, "poly" fenders, standard 2 inch coupler for easy towing, and two (2) 2 .5 gallon fuel cans with retaining straps.

Features:

  • 15" of ground clearance with our patented mono-spring suspension system
  • Strong tubular powder-coated frame with a 1500 pound weight capacity
  • Spindles, bearings, hubs with steel wheels and 20x7-8 knobby ATV tires
  • Towable to 60 miles per hour
  • Durable spring loaded tipper latch
  • Equipped with a 2" ball coupler with "quick latch" features
  • 45 degree dump with unique "leverage assist" design
  • Built specifically for ATV enhancement

Feelin right at home with the tracks!

First Impressions:




Pros:

    The suspension on this trailer really works. I hauled it empty and full with an excellent ride and no bouncing around while under way.
    It's very durable, with all the right features such as tie down rails, gas can holders, 2" ball hitch, poly tub body, and a great tilt system.
    This tilt system is the easiest that I have ever used, with little or no effort to raise the bed to dump your cargo or load.

Cons:

    None yet..



Bottom Line


 
This trailer has got to be the most efficient one that I have reviewed so far. It is narrow enough to fit through the tightest trails without scrubbing against the trees, but large enough to carry a very decent load or the occasional deer. This type of body design is light and will last for years. At this point I would highly recommend this Badlands ATV Trailer from Lil Mule Trailer Company.
