getting hot

Post by petespatrol »

I got a gq with a 4.2 gas petrol cargy motor, my problem is i recently done a 2in bodylift and now it runs very hot. ive put a different hose on the bottom of radiator to get rid of the kink. before the lift it run cool all the time and now the longer i drive the hotter it gets and the higher it revs... Any info would be great. thanks

did you lower the fan shroud when you did the body lift?
