There should be bleed screws at the coolant pump and thermostat to help get the air out.
I would also recommend a TrailTech TTO for continuous monitoring of coolant temperature.
Disconnect the fan and apply 12vdc directly to it. You want to make sure it works before you start troubleshooting the rest of the circuit.
Good luck.

This morning I drove it for a bit to warm up the engine. Raised the front end a foot or so. I tested the fan before hand. It works. Once raised, I let it idle for a good 10-15 min checking the coolant level periodically. It never dropped, but the coolant in the radiator was warm. Fan did kick on during this. I never really saw a drop in fluid level. Top rad hose (going to water pump) was hot as was the return hose (from engine to rad). Since both were hot the thermostat must be working, right?
All seems good. Any thoughts?
