The s10 frame will be every bit as good or better than a k5 Blazer frame. It's boxed partway, engineered better, and won't have nearly the frame flex.

As to the TBI wiring, it won't care what you use for a steering column. Also, will you adapt a Ford 205 to get the driver's side drop on the transfer case? I'd probably recommend running a 241 transfer case instead, assuming your '89 donor wasn't the V-series (73-87 style) it should have one.
