Over repeated thermal cycles, the OEM plastic tanks become brittle, cracking at the inlet necks and crimp seams. Furthermore, the aged stock core fin densities suffer from internal sediment blockage and exterior fin corrosion, leading to thermal saturation, localized hot spots, and catastrophic heat soak during low-speed, high-load overland crawling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis heavy-duty unit addresses OEM structural flaws with 100% TIG-welded aircraft-grade aluminum end tanks and a precision furnace-brazed 3-row core. Removing failure-prone O-rings and plastic assemblies guarantees leak-free operation under harsh washboard vibrations and chassis flex. The high-capacity 3-row tube-and-fin design expands coolant fluid capacity and increases external surface contact area, optimizing convective heat dissipation even at low airflow trail speeds while bolting directly to existing OEM fan shrouds and core support mounts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e1994-1997 Land Rover Defender\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eRover V8 (3.9L \/ 4.0L) \/ L316 (Defender 90 \/ 110)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStock Output\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e182 hp \/ 232 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994 Land Rover Defender 90 (3.9L Rover V8 Petrol)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1995 Land Rover Defender 90 (3.9L Rover V8 Petrol)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1997 Land Rover Defender 90 (4.0L Rover V8 Petrol)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994-1997 Land Rover Defender 110 (3.9L \/ 4.0L Rover V8 Petrol)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Land Rover Durability Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for extreme expedition duty, this heavy-duty all-aluminum radiator withstands severe frame flex and high-ambient heat loads during steep ascents, heavy towing, and technical low-range rock crawling without coolant loss.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50496648741112,"sku":"DS-EPGHDYINY","price":214.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/aluminum-radiator-for-land-rover-defender-1994-1997-3-9l-4-0l-1.jpg?v=1789246926","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/products\/aluminum-radiator-for-land-rover-defender-1994-1997-3-9l-4-0l","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
