Pull that radiator and have it boiled out. Replace the hoses and belt, including the trans cooler hoses. If you have the dough, think about putting a disc brake conversion on that beast. Have the heater core looked at too.
This is an excellent suggestion.
Yes, disc brakes. My friend, since he is at the edge of weight limits on his SUV and trailer, converted to ceramic disc brakes.
I know, my brakes overheat coming down that 9,000 feet above sea level Tiioga pass where even with the downshift the trailer was still pushing my vehicle.
