AC Problems

Anybody Help! I have a 95' 4Runner V6, 4WD, Gold Edition with AC problems. I'm overheating when stopped and AC maxed. I had a leak, replaced pressure hose to firewall under battery and everything seemed OK till I got into traffic. The rig started to overheat made it to destination and had Drier/Condenser replaced, AC fan replace, thermostat replaced, Radiator flushed and nothing has seemed to work. They said head gasket could be going but can't find leak and was replaced @ 80k only 136k on her now. It only happens when not moving and under load of the AC. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. I'm going cross-country and desperately need the AC.
Thanks & Respect!
Chris

Don't run with the ac on? It's better you are a little warm that the truck getting too hot.

I'm not understanding your question but if you are overheating w/ A/C on at traffic stop then it sounds to me like the fan clutch is slipping.

Thanks IronMike had 'em check it out and clutch fan motor not turning at 100%, ie. doesn't turn faster when truck gets warmer. Hope that does the trick cause I've got 5000 more miles to cover and while I might be OK with AC off the Dog is never going to make it.
Respect!
