Thanks everyone for the information. Sounds like nothing is wrong, I'm just expecting it to run cooler than expected. I will look into the newer radiator and possibly delete the bypass. I will most likely delete the bypass first and see what happens. Im n the fence about about keeping the truck, been thinking of going to a F150 in the Spring. I love this truck just would like somethng newer

Yes only one cooler. The Tru-Cool
Guys that I talked to run the stock cooler and then the Tru-Cool cooler. That way the total cooling space is increased. That is why your temps are high but normal. I would do both, Radiator and reinstall the stock cooler in line also. You will see around 130 degree now and about 180 in the summer months towing. Good luck, Chet
