Depends on why its overheating. IF the Radiator fan is not kicking on, then there are several things you can check.

One is that the AC system is working properly. Unfortunately, Ford tied in the AC system to the cars cooling system (overheating). And without the AC System working properly you might have to wire a toggle switch directly to the fan, with a fuse link on one side, to be able to manually turn on the fan when the car reaches temperature.

IF the AC unit is working properly there are 2 sensors. One is on top of the thermostat housing, and actually is in the housing. The other is in the engine block right next to the thermostat housing. IF either of these is not working properly, then the fan unit will not come on.

If that is not the problem, you may have a blockage somewhere, and need a serious cleaning of the radiator and/or engine block.
