Over repeated thermal cycles, engine vibration, and high system pressures, these plastic tanks become brittle, developing micro-fractures along the seam headers. Additionally, the integrated factory transmission cooler is notorious for internal structural failure, risking catastrophic cross-contamination between transmission fluid and engine coolant. In heavy-towing and high ambient temperature conditions, the stock single-row design quickly succumbs to thermal saturation, causing elevated engine temps and compromised transmission longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis direct bolt-on performance radiator eliminates failure-prone plastic and epoxy joints by utilizing an all-aluminum construction with 100% TIG-welded end tanks and a vacuum-brazed 3-row core. Featuring a dense 14-16 fins-per-inch (FPI) profile with 3\/8-inch tube spacing, it expands surface contact area to increase heat dissipation efficiency by 35-45% over stock. It features a heavy-duty internal automatic transmission fluid cooler with precise M12x1.0 threaded ports, isolating fluids to protect the gearbox while optimizing thermal transfer. Every unit undergoes 100% pressure-decay leak testing to ensure absolute reliability under severe load.\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;\"\u003e2004-2015 Nissan Armada (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;\"\u003e5.6L VK56DE V8 \/ WA60 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;\"\u003e305-317 hp \/ 385-393 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCore Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e26.7\" W x 23.4\" H (Overall: 27.5\" W x 31.1\" H)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInlet \/ Outlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e1.50\" (Top Passenger Side) \/ 1.50\" (Bottom Driver Side)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrans Cooler Thread\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eInternal M12x1.0 Fittings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Numbers \/ Interchange\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e214607S000, 214609FD0A, 214609FD0B, 214609FD1B, 21460ZC00B, NI3010202, 21460ZC00A, 21460ZQ00A, 10164126, 214607S00A, DPI 2691, CU2691, CC2691, RAD2691\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2004 Nissan Pathfinder Armada:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.6L V8 Automatic (LE, SE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2005-2015 Nissan Armada:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.6L V8 Gas \/ Flex-Fuel Automatic (LE, SE, SE Off-Road, Platinum, Titanium, SL, SV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: Fits automatic transmission models only.
