So i went wheeling today! lightly i mean with the girlfriend.... only a couple feet of snow, soggy wet shit! these tyres are amazing!!!

question / problem: when i was bogging through this heap of wet snow (in 4 low) with all 4 wheels spinning, my temperature gauge started to skyrocket! i saw / smelled it happening, and took breaks for her to cool down.... but ummm i don't think this is right? i haven't installed the tranny cooler yet, but i really doubt that would have made a difference? so should i replace the fan with an electric or is that not my issue? i was doing 1/8 MPH Turing 3-4k RPMS slinging snow all over the place! she was working!!! so is warming up 3/4 of the way to red out of the norm? would appreciate some input on this please!

.... fixed, replaced radiator!
