Default p0128

Got this last night, engine gets to temp, it is cold as hell out though, cleared it will see if it returns

Basicly says engines taking too long to reach temp or not reaching temp

Low coolant, stuck on fan, bad thermostat, bad temp sender

Will do, just the thermostat and oring or the whole assembly? Since these are prone to break right?

That is a great price.
I don't know how much miles you have on yours, but my thermostat housing cracked at manifold , so I replaced the whole thing.Came with thermostat already installed inside.

T-stat failure on this is usually the seal on the t-stat itself, rubber tears and allows coolant to bypass the t-stat. Check the seal when you take it out, if it is in good shape, you might be looking at a failed OCMV.
