Under sustained thermal stress from towing and off-road operation with the Magnum series engines, continuous thermal cycling fatigues the polymer, causing hairline fractures, gasket blowout, and severe heat soak during low-speed crawling or heavy throttle applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered with a high-capacity 3-row core, this unit utilizes vacuum-brazed aluminum cooling tubes and 100% TIG-welded aluminum end tanks, eliminating epoxy and crimped plastic failure points entirely. The 22.5\" x 22\" core features cooling rows spaced 3\/8\" apart packed with 14-16 louvered fins per inch for optimal heat transfer. It includes a built-in 14-3\/8\" transmission oil cooler (TOC) with a 1.5\" driver-side inlet and 1.75\" passenger-side outlet to maintain stable transmission and engine temperatures.\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;\"\u003e1998-1999 Dodge Durango (Automatic)\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;\"\u003eChrysler Magnum 3.9L V6, 5.2L V8, 5.9L V8 \/ DN Platform\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;\"\u003e175-245 hp \/ 225-335 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\u003e1998-1999 Dodge Durango 3.9L V6 Automatic Transmission\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1998-1999 Dodge Durango 5.2L V8 Automatic Transmission\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1998-1999 Dodge Durango 5.9L V8 Automatic Transmission\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDoes not fit 2000-2003 Dodge Durango 4.7L models (different core configuration)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Dodge Heavy-Duty Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt to withstand extreme payload and trail demands, this reinforced aluminum core protects your Magnum powertrain against catastrophic overheating on steep grades, heavy towing hauls, and high-ambient ambient environments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50417252073720,"sku":"DS-E3AYC5O2F","price":239.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/performance-radiator-for-dodge-durango-1998-1999-3-9l-5-2l-5-9l-automatic-1.jpg?v=1788333187","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/products\/performance-radiator-for-dodge-durango-1998-1999-3-9l-5-2l-5-9l-automatic","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
