The 1997 Land Rover Defender can be categorized as a rugged sport-utility car that used all over the world. There are some considerations that the LR Defender 90 is the last of the real Land Rovers with its solid axles and short wheelbase intact, not to mention that the Defender 90 is a great performance for the off-road enthusiasts. The Defender 90 features 3-inch lift, the skinny LT255/85R16 BF Goodrich Mud Terrain KM2 Tires to provide the off-roaders’ needs. Since the Defender 90 designed to provide the off-roaders’ needs, it has a reliable performance when it comes to rocky, bumpy, and muddy roads.
The 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 has a rubber floor mats and the seats’ covering are designed as washable fabrics. The 1997 version of Land Rover went through some upgrades, especially in engine. The 1997 models upgraded and cleaner-burning 4.0L V-8. The engine type yields 182 horsepower and 233 lb-ft of torque. Another new thing happens to the 1997 models is ZF four-speed automatic transmission which operated automatically and factory full-time 2-spd transfer case. The air conditioning for the Defender 90 is improved very well than the previous Land Rover models. It also loaded with a six-disc player, and also a brand new center console with an instrument cluster that operated automatically.
For the standard brakes, the Defender 90 has four-wheel discs along with four brake-piston calipers in front and two piston calipers in rear. The Defender 90 can be proven as a safe off-road car with its good three-point seat belts/shoulder harshness that can be used when the car went through a very challenging track on the way. However, the car has a disturbing high level noise. Even so, the noise is an understandable since the Defender 90 is a truck along with its high level noise. But overall, the car is recommended for the off-road enthusiasts since the design and the specs are perfectly compatible with off-road tracks.
