I put a new A/C compressor on this truck along with a new dryer and orifice. Now it runs hot. I put on new water pump in March and a thermostat. Flushed out radiator and cleaned the fins out of the condenser yesterday. Plus changed the clutch on the fan yesterday also. Still runs hot. What can I do now besides change the A/C condenser?

Get the radiator core cleaned, often a back flush does nothing. You may have blocked core tubes in the radiator and the only way to clean this is to have a radiator shop remove the tanks and do a core clean.

Define "runs hot". Does it happen with the AC off?
