Engine overheating with no heat inside
This is on a 2001 Dakota 3.9V6 automatic with approximately 142,000 miles that started out overheating due to radiator leaking and blowing steam. Since then I've replaced the radiator, electric fan, 180 degree thermostat, clutch van, hoses, and of course antifreeze mix. The truck takes the usual time to get to normal temp; however, gradually runs hot and continue into the red indicator with the current temperature outside of 50 degrees. The interior has no heat even trying all settings even defrost and a/c. I don't have a clue what to check out next please advise.
Thank you,
Mike

Not to be a downer dodgedartmike but have you tried a thing called youtube amazing place for the diy mechanic looking to save $$$. Do some research on what other cars/trucks use the same engine and search.
