I have recently built a 1993 XJ with 169k miles. 6.5 inch long arm, 35" tires, 4.88 gears, lockers f/r. I also add a CCS 3 Core Radiator, Hesco Hiflow water pump, Hesco Hiflow thermostat housing, new oem thermostat, replaced all radiator hoses, New fan shroud and electric fan. Its running over 210 while on the freeway with the ac on high and slightly over still when not running the ac. It runs slightly over 210 while idling with ac on. It runs right at 210 when idling with no ac. It gets hotter and cycles back down when slowing down after running at freeway speeds.
I do have the heater core bypassed.
This concerns me because the weather is still in the high 70s here in phoenix but I know the hotter temps are coming. I want to be able to idle with the ac on and not worry about it.
I know the water jackets are clear because we flushed them very carefully when changing water pump etc.
4.0, 4x4, 8.8 rear, d30 front
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Kendall
