Default Wrecking 2005 Blazer questions - parts I should pick up just because?

Hi

I found a person who is wrecking the identical blazer truck that I have so now is my opportunity to buy parts.

Parting out 2005 GMC Jimmy/Blazer

I am hobbyist and am enjoying learning about these blazers.

He has some 6 month old shocks Monroe reflex that are $99 new here and he is selling me all 4 for $75 so that is great.

He is also going to remove them and teach me how!

This owner will obviously have a lot of experience as his truck died at 305 000 KM.

I wanted to ask the board what else should I make an offer on before he sends it to the wrecker?

Maybe I can buy some sensors for $5 or something? Learn to "TEST" the sensor's ?

get the mechanism and switch for the rear hatch release, those can go bad.

crap I should have checked email...I think it may of already been gone.

however I got
both sensors on throttle body
new rad cap
positive battery cable red thing
vanity visors that both have mirrors on them!!!
rear seat ( one of two ) is all I needed
the whole air cleaner assembly included mass air and the other sensor in there.
I got the plastic intake manifold with the sensor that faces down into there
I got 4 shocks that look like they're in good shape
a brake light bulb
rear floor matt
the big black charcoal rectangular canister thing at rear of truck!

That's about it, for $120... Seller was awesome, guy knows so much about the truck...his friends were super nice. It was a great sunday hanging with him and his friends finding parts.

still lots left on truck...but for the most part I'm good.

passenger side mirror is left. if anyone is interested.
