Last fall i replaced just about everything cooling wise to fix this problem, and it still is heating up over what i would like, i replaced the thermostat, radiator, clutch fan, ac fan, the ac fan was bad too, all the radiator hoses and the heater core hoses, i just dont get why it wont stay cool, only thing i didnt replace was the water pump which it was brand new in 07 and has less than 20,000 miles on it, any ideas???

Ive got the exact same issue, I replaced the radiator, water pump, thermostat, upper and lower hose's,the sending unit sensor, I can't see how the damn thing is supposedly getting hot. But its damn near running in the red zone on the gauge. This is on a 1996 I'm wondering if i was given the wrong sending unit sensor at advance auto god knows they hardly ever give me the proper part the first time

Well the thing is if its below 65 or so it will be fine trail riding and everything all day once its over like 75 even with out using ac it still wants to overheat and it seems like its just climbing more and more until it gets to the red...I don't get it maybe ill just invest on a high flow water pump and see what happens and yes I did flush it all out when I did all that stuff it was like brand new coolant in it already when I flushed it
