When my a/c is on, this beast still gets way too hot. I never want to go through another summer like this.
In theory, I shouldn't have a problem. Of all the posts in all the months, I'm on top of 95% of the important things. I've been working off your posts and suggestions like crazy. I even went down to a 13lb cap and 180 thermo and new rad hoses this weekend. DIDN'T COOL THE SNARLING BEAST ONE DEGREE!!
Things that are suspect:
1) I have no fan clutch (yet)
2) Water pump is stock
3) I think I'm gonna buy an oil cooler this weekend
Other than that, you can't nail me on anything cooling-related (shroud and fan distance/coolant mix/hoses/sending unit/radiator itself/etc etc etc).
Still-----I have no faith that addressing any of the remaing three issues will keep my truck cool.
