Question temps increasing...!!

whats up everyone..
I have a 2004 L with 4k miles ....recently the temps have been climbing in my area to 98F.....my water temp climbs high ....and my tranny temp reaches 210F (no hard accelartion involved)....my A/C goes warm too...I have a 5000 cfm dual E fans....and a tranny power cooler with its own fans kickin arond 170f....all these add ons are new...they were added recently after seeing temps going high...since my radiater is practically new and my coolant levels are fine with water wetter in...I think my factory water pump is the problem...any other thoughts?...where should I look for good water pumps?

Thanks
Waz

I had the bottom part of my thermostat come apart. My truck wouldn't over heat but it would run hotter then normal.Due to the fact that the way the thermostat broke it would open but not all the way.

Just a thought.

Are you sure your fans come on when you turn the AC on. What efan do you have. I assume you have the flex-a-lite by the CFMs you give. The fans should come on right a way when you turn the AC on.
