Introduction

Upton 180: The Australian Agricultural Powerhouse

Prepare to be impressed by the Upton 180, a tractor that embodies rugged Australian engineering and raw power. Designed for the most demanding agricultural tasks, this machine is a true testament to durability and performance, ready to tackle any challenge the field throws its way.

Unleash 180 Horsepower

At the heart of the Upton 180 lies a formidable 180 horsepower engine, a Nissan UD43 two-stroke diesel. This liquid-cooled powerhouse, with its 4.9-liter displacement, delivers a substantial 458 lb-ft of torque at 1400 RPM, ensuring that you have more than enough grunt for deep plowing, heavy hauling, and continuous operation without breaking a sweat.

Unrivaled Gearbox Versatility

The transmission in the Upton 180 is a unique marvel, featuring 21 forward and 9 reverse gears. This extensive range, achieved through the clever integration of military-surplus gearboxes (including components from the LVT-4 landing craft and Mack gearboxes from the M3 tank), offers unparalleled control and adaptability. Whether you need crawling speed for delicate tasks or robust power for field preparation, this gearbox provides the perfect ratio.

Built for Stability and Endurance

Weighing in at an impressive 18,500 lbs and measuring 457 cm in length, the Upton 180 is built for stability. Its substantial dimensions, coupled with agricultural tires – 11.00x16 up front and a choice of 18.4x34 or 18.4x38 at the rear – provide excellent traction and a solid footing in diverse soil conditions. The 40 cm of ground clearance ensures it can navigate uneven terrain with ease.

Hydraulic Powerhouse

Supporting your operations, the hydraulic system on the Upton 180 operates at a robust 2500 psi, delivering a total flow of 20 gpm. This ensures that your implements receive the consistent power and responsiveness needed for efficient fieldwork, from lifting heavy attachments to precise control of hydraulic functions.

Conclusion

"The Upton 180 is more than just a tractor; it's a piece of agricultural history forged with robust engineering. Its combination of raw power, unique transmission capabilities, and solid construction makes it a reliable and capable partner for any serious farmer looking for a machine that can go the distance. Manufactured in Australia, it’s a symbol of enduring quality."
