Default What should I Replace?

Hey Guys, a few months back I bought a retired wilderness firefighting rig ('94 Blazer K1500) that sat behind the firehouse for 15+ years. As you can imagine it's got its' fair share of problems that I have been addressing as they pop up but I am tired of this thing having issues while I'm driving (it's a daily driver) so I am going to just slowly replace EVERYTHING on the vehicle.
In your expert opinion, what would you recommend as the higher priority items (I've been throwing about $800 from each paycheck at the Blazer).
I've already done:
Water pump and lines.
Oil pump and lines .
Power steering pump and lines.
Brakes, lines, master cylinder and booster.
New (mud &#128513 tires and wheels.
AlternatorStarterTensioner & idler pulleySerpentine Belt
Radiator Fan ClutchCustom 8" roof rack (I'm fabricating ladders for it atm).
I got new suspension in the mail right now too.

I've already got a 4L80E tranny for it and am on backorder for a JEGS LS crate motor. I'm also trying to find two Dana 60's for it that won't brake the bank.

I've wanted a big bad Blazer since I was a kid, and I don't plan on disappointing the 10 year old version of myself 🤣
