Product Overview

Kit for installing Dual Electric Fans from 1989 Nissan Maxima fan assembly in Land Rover Discovery 2.  Kit includes wire harness, fuse panel with fuses and relays, fuse panel mounting bracket, fan shroud mounting brackets and all hardware needed EXCEPT the fan assembly and controller, customer to provide those components (recommendations below). 

Key Benefits Include:

  1. Resolves low speed temperature creep  - Resolved the low speed temperature creep at idle charactteristic on D2's due to low airflow from stock clutch fan (also helps with low speed off-roading maintaining temperature).
  2. Eliminates risk of exploding clutch fan  - taking out radiator hoses, transmission hoses, oil cooler hoses, power steering hoses, intake hose, and other underhood items (common D2 problem - see blog post here:)
  3. Improved fuel economy - at cooler ambient temps fans won't even come on at highway speeds depending on thermostat and fan controller setting.
  4. Reduced engine noise from cooling fan - up to 4x quieter than alternative high flow engine driven fans
  5. Faster Warm Up in winter months due to little or no airflow across radiator until needed
  6. Increase AC efficiency from increased air flow across AC condenser
  7. Improve accessibility to service accessory pulleys, power steering pump, and waterpump. 
  8. Increased horsepower  trhough elimination of parasitic engine fan drag
  9. Manual control capable whether manually turning off for wading or manually turning on for those hottest steep grade climbs. 

Wiring harness includes accessory fuse panel and mounting bracket with 40a fuses for fans and 10a fuses for relays.  Simple wiring connection vehicle with ground lugs and positive battery lugs installed, fan controller leads to relays, all color coded.  Fan connectors plug directly in to Maxima fan assembly.  Any fan controller can be made to work easily by connecting controller trigger wire to the relay trigger wires (four total), everything from a simple single toggle switch to a complex multi-stage programmable fan controller.  Extinct Motorsports recommends the Craig Davies Thermatic Fan Switch with build in temperature gauge (https://daviescraig.com/blog/davies-craig-digital-gauge-thermatic-fanewp-switch-kit )  This gauge includes programmable alarm and control settings as well as manual control buttons. 

Maxima fans were selected because they are two speed with higher airflow than all competitors (Taurus, Fusion, etc) and the shroud fits the D2 radiator almost perfectly (two small notches for the radiator outlets - see photos). The fan assembly is  available from Amazon, RockAuto, etc at around $100.  Entire kit is lifetime warrantied (not including fan assembly or controller from third party).  More details in our blog post here:
