Minneapolis-Moline UDLX Comfortractor

The Minneapolis-Moline UDLX Comfortractor is a historic tractor that was known for its unique combination of farm functionality and comforts of a road vehicle. With a liquid-cooled, gasoline-powered, 4-cylinder 283.7 cubic-inch engine, and a 5.6:1 compression ratio, it was ahead of its time. The UDLX Comfortractor could reach a maximum rated RPM of 1275. The transmission was synchronized with 5 forward gears and 1 reverse. The tractor dimensions were quite large for its era, with a length of 141 inches, a width of 77 inches, and a height of 94 inches, while the operating weight was 6400 lbs. This tractor was equipped with a 6-volt starter system but details about its PTO type and speeds, hitch capabilities, and operational features like the brake and hydraulic systems remain elusive. While few specifics beyond the engine and size are known, the UDLX Comfortractor remains a significant piece of farming machinery from the Minneapolis-Moline line.
