Exclamation Over heat

I have a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. I had a fender bender and crack my radiator. My car never ran hot, I just seen the anti freeze dripping @ the bottom of the car. Well I got a nwe radiator but my car started running hot, so I change the thermostat & my water pump. My car still run hot if I am in stop & go traffic but if I am on the freeway it is fine. It don't move pass the half way point. Can someone please help me. I need reliable solutions because I am running out of money paying for the maybes this is the problem and its not.

Your fan is not working. I think you have a hydraulic operated fan on your rig, and they have been known to be troublesome.
