W124 coolant fan options

I have a w124 my wife has a w124 and my step daughter has a w124. So basically I have 3 cars to keep up with. we all live in the hottest part of the state. There has got to be a better way to keep these cars cool. New radiators, Mercedes fan clutch, but most of the cooling seems to be from the electric fans which doesn’t make sense. Basically the fans intended to be used as an auxiliary are now ruining 90 percent of the time. It doesn’t overheat but the electric fans are running full blast to keep the temps under 110

One idea I had was to just ditch the clutch fan and put a nice big electric in there with a variable ramp up speed. Clearly the clutch fan isn’t doing the job
