Exclamation 1993 Ford F150 5.0L V8 is Overheating...

The title says it all... so far i have replaced/changed:
1) Coolant Flush and New Coolant
2) Thermostat Replaced with a 180 deg.
3) Water Pump Replaced (and another coolant flush with new coolant)
4) Fan Clutch replaced...

For all these assume 80 degrees outside and partly sunny...

It seems each time replace something, it gets just a little bit better that before...
It will overheat just idling and sitting still WITHOUT the air on, it takes maybe 15 min... (from cold)
It will overheat just idling and sitting still WITH the air on in about 8-10min... (from cold)
It will overheat very very quickly towing a small trailer with or without the air on...
It will overheat but stay just under the red line just driving around town with the air off...
It overheats very quickly if i try to drive over 60mph...

What is left to replace? Im lost...
