It's got a 2,000 pound towing capacity, I doubt it would bend the hitch... and depending on how it attaches a couple of shear pins or bolts would prevent it.

I'd check Ebay....

Is the smoke blue or white? Oil usually smokes blue

It could be a valve seal, usually piston rings won't start all of the sudden like that. Check the oil level to be sure it's not over full.

Looking at the first illustration it looks like it could also clip into the floorboard. And you would kind of squeeze it in and pull up to remove. If that isn't the case call your dealer.

I looked, it was like $200+ if my memory serves me right

Sounds like the pushrods hopped off the lifters.

Main things when engine swapping. Crank shaft rotation (PTO side) Crankshaft Diameter and length. Mounting bolt configurations And throttle cable hook ups, as well as a charging system

Are you sure it's not leaking from somewhere else and running down the line? It is very odd that multiple pumps leak.

Might read this to see if this affects any of yours Fuel Leaks May Create Fire Hazard In the recalled vehicles, two possible problems may exist: The engine oil cooler hoses can separate from the clamp joints due to insufficient clamp strength resulting in an oil leak. The fuel tank cap gasket can become pinched and torn when the cap is installed on the filler neck. This can result in a fuel and fuel vapor leak, creating a fire hazard. The company has received seven reports so far of vehicles catching on fire or being damaged. Fortunately, no injuries have been reported. The vehicles were sold from August 2018 through February 2019 for about $12,000 and were manufactured in Taiwan and imported by Kawasaki Motors Corporation. The recall affects 2019 Mule Pro MX utility vehicles, models 700 EPS, 700 EPS LE, and 700 Camo EPS. These are all four-wheel off-highway utility vehicles with side-by-side seating for two people and automotive-style controls. They came in camo, green, red, and white. Customers may see the “Mule Pro MX” logo printed on the right side and left front fender of the affected vehicles, and “Kawasaki” printed on the cargo box. The VIN should be located on the steel frame between the right, front lower A-arm mounts. Kawasaki invites consumers to call toll-free at 866-802-9381 from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday for more information. They can also visit the company’s website. Kawasaki Recalls 1,000 Mule Pros Over Rollover Risk Other recalls have affected the Kawasaki Mule Pro. The most recent recall prior to the one detailed above involved about 1,000 vehicles. For this recall, there was a possibility that an incorrect grade of material — which did not meet the intended tensile strength—was used to manufacture the ROPS cross member of the rollover protective structure. The recall involved 2018 model year Mule Pro DXT, DX and 2019 model year Mule Pro FXT, FX, and FXR utility vehicles. These were sold at Kawasaki dealers from August 31, 2018, to September 22, 2018, for between $13,100 and $17,000. Consumers were advised to stop using the products immediately, and contact their dealerships to schedule a free repair, which would involve replacing the ROPS cross member.

that would be the smart thing to do

It's not in the cable grinding but in the transmission most likely. I do not know a whole lot about transmission inner workings

You'd be better off buying LED fixtures. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=utv+led+lights&sprefix=utv+led+&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_8 We had a member while back ask about a spare rim and tire and he had no luck. Unless you buy a separate rim and tire.

Couldn't find any info on the World Wide Web.

It could be. My limits of knowledge stop at fuel injection..
