Default 6.5 Over heating

Alright I have 6.5 witch has started to over heat since i put my plow on it the thermostats have been taken out.

I also pull a skidsteer around on a daily basis

Any other tricks I can do maybe? Health diesel sells a kit should i get the whole kist or will just fan blades work?

plow is killing airflow to rad so you need to clean it out. put t-stats back in and make sure fan clutch is coming on at right time because you need the air flow.

Is there anyway that I can get the fan clutch to stay on or control it with a switch?
