i have a 2001 4.0 and im having a OVERCOOLing issue.the temp guage bearly rises about the c mark on the guage. i ran it 60 miles at 70 miles an hour and it ran just fine. i have a body lift on and havent finished putting the front bumper on but it ran normal til i shut it down then cranked it an hour later. i checked the radiator and the coolant is definantly not overheating. im seeing a slight amount of metal floating in the coolant. the waterpump is operating normally so im assuming the thermostat is stuck open. any suggjestions on how to fix this problem?
