so how many of you have a v8 s10 thats 4x4?
Do you guys still drive it in the winter?
I do i love driving mine in the snow.
Also for those of you looking for a good 31\" tire for street and trail/snow check out the Roughrider M&S from canadian tire. in deep snow this tire is awsome, even better than the mud terrains on my dads truck.

I believe I got the only ZR2 V-8 on the board!!
I think S-10 HD is a better name than ZR2. Yeah I know its a off road truck with the RPO ZR2 package but with its 8 1/2 rear and 7 1/2 front stock it desarved to be HD branded, after all chevy and dodge are throwin HD on everything so why not the S-10??? haha

I swaped a 91 camaro for a 4x4 that already a TPI 350. when i got the blazer it started running hot and was in bad need of a tune up. after a good set of plug wires and plugs, reverseing the wires going to the fan and replacing the radiator cap its been a blast, and alot easier getting in and out of the deer woods.

mine is a 91 4x4 had the 4.3 in it. I dont think it was too much harder than what they say it is for the 2wd and i would rather have 4x4 well worth it.
whats the point of having all that power if you cant go play in the mud http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

I have an 84 4X4 with a 355 with 175 shot of nitrous. For a year it was true 4X4, now it is a 2WD. It is now mostly a criuser or a drag-racer.

91 Blazer 4x4 with a TBI 350. Much more pleasant to drive locked in with a v8.

ME TOOO!!!!!!
84 s10 blazer, 350 carb, 5spd, 3.73\'s w/posi.
Its a real fun truck. It gets used more in the winter than in the summer. It was designed to plow snow and pull trailers, car and 4place snowmobile.
You can see it in my avatar.
CHEVYPOWERMAN, thats a nice truck. That is simialer to what I have been thinking about for awhile. Your is just a little more extreme than I am planning.

I have an \'87 4x4 Blazer with 305 TBI. I am using Honkook tires. The are great in the mud and snow. Just changed my 4:11 open for 3:73 limited slip.
I find the Roughriders are to soft. They work well but don\'t seem to last that long.
The 4x4 seemed to be pretty easy, especially if I had known what to do before starting.
Hindsight is always 20 20.
