Hey yall, I purchased a K5 Blazer and it's my first vehicle of this kind that I've owned, what should I do to make this vehicle mechanically sound, along with any quality of life upgrades that you all recommend I do So far all that's replaced is the alternator, driveshaft, belts, oil, and fluids, everything else (such as radio and subs) has been cosmetics and not related to mechanics Thank you all in advance, paperwork related to the motor (it's a 1985 motor in it) is at the end of the slides Lastly, what are the shift points for the 700r4 Transmission? Mine has OD, and it's been shifting from 1st to 2nd gear has been feeling delayed as of late, I plan on taking it to a shop but any help would go a long way) (I'd also like to throw this tidbit in, this server has been great for all 4x4 vehicles, highly recommended for all enthusiasts of these vehicles: https://disboard.org/server/710626557336616970)

Welcome to the forum! That's a sharp looking K5 you have there.
I don't have any specific maintenance advice to offer, but hopefully you can find some help here. If you do have any specific issues you're trying to address, I'd suggest starting a new question thread in the relevant technical section of the forum. You'll likely get better responses.
