or, are you loosing coolant, hence the overheating?
or, your coolant loss and overheating are caused by the same problem...?
1. your radiator is clogged, in and/or out.
a. your radiator tubes are clogged. they might still be cleaned thru "radiator overhaul", or you might have to replace the radiator.
b. your radiator fins are so dirty, very little air passes thru them. you may try to have them cleaned in the radiator fixit shop.
2. your aux fans are slowing down. mine were (non-toyota), and replacement of the motors restored them to factory spec.
3. (water pump) leak?
good luck.
