Based on feedback, I think step one is to relocate the fan controller to the thermostat housing. I can leave the gauge connected to passenger head for now. I need to check the fan controller and see what the temp is that the fans come on and when they go off. From my research, I feel the thermostat should match the controllers fan on temperature, so I may be able to go to 160, possibly high flow. I still need to research the carb spacer plate. I feel like there is a better option versus that ugly flat plate.

Just trying to cover all bases.
I would get a adjustable thermostat and use for the fans. Such as this. I have one of the cheaper ones in my 64 SS Impala and it works great. With the AC on it keeps the motor @ 190*.

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
