Are you overheating yet?

I've got all new belts and hoses sitting in my shop waiting to be installed. I've also picked up new bearings for my idler pulleys and a new drier/receiver so I can convert to R134a. Lack of time and over work have put me off of completing this venture.

AC just barely keeps up since I need new weatherstripping all around, but not overheating when I drove it around sunday in 110 degree heat.
going on a 4 day backcountry trip this weekend, but aside from driving up the beeline from Mesa, I'll be in cooler parts. Truck has a new aluminum radiator that seems to be doing pretty good (knock on wood)

This is after I'd been cruising down the highway at 70 for about a half hour. Nice warm 100* Montana day. Stock 3 row radiator that was rodded and rebuilt about 10,000 miles ago...mildly built 400 with a 192* thermostat and electric fan set to come on at 209
had to take the pic at a weird angle to not get a reflection of my nice hairy legs in shorts...no A.C. ya know.
