ZR2 S10 GOES OFFROADING! (TESTING THE LIMITS) 

They are very capable trucks from the factory I had a 2000 ZR2 it would do anything I wanted or needed it to do I have since upgraded to a 18 ZR2 "LOVE MY ZR2'S"

@@ben9895 Jesus loves you all. You can still turn to him.

Them zr2 are badass I got one as a mud truck with a 4 inch body life on a set of Maxie's 30 10 50s. It goes till it bottoms out.

Yeah what West said man I've had four of these S-Series trucks two of which were ZR2 is I had a 98 Blazer ZR2 I had it 03 S10 ZR2 that had a 2in lift in it and then I've had also to stalk Blazers 1/2 door 1 4 door 98 and 99 and 99 I still have. they're good trucks man to Never Let You Down that's for sure.

I've had nothing but front end problems with these trucks to the moon and back. I've owned 4 of them. All had various tire sizes up to 35s with 2.5" rc lift and 2" body. The best case scenario with these trucks is to just keep it stock, always air down and drive slow. Because the front end components are pin

I’ve since then realized this lol plus I’m lifted now so I’m not too worried about it now

Travis Campbell keep making good videos

Trying my best to man lol it’s hard to work full time and do RU-vid haha

Do it ! They’re great trucks.. I hate I sold mine but I needed room for the Colorado

Awesome thanks !! Lift is coming soon lol

I loved my 1999 chevy zr2 truck i owned for a year before my daughter was born and I had to sell it! It was that same pewter color. I just might look to buy one again if I can find one from early 2000's that has under 150k mileage. Hey do you live up nearby brustol,tn the holston lake and holston mountains in northeast Tennessee?

Thanks man! I may come see you for rock sliders lol

Heck Ya!

Thanks man ! I’m trying to upload more often. Been on vacation this week so it’s been pretty busy lately. Doing big things this month with my white 1st gen

s10 got 4 wheel low and high and 2 wheel drive

Thanks man it’s from NFAB 4 wheel parts sells them

It was ! It did pretty good. Had a blast with it but now I’m in a ZR2 Colorado

Check out my latest videos 🤙 I’ve joined the Colorado gang

Sounds like a good time ! Look for me in a ZR2 Colorado now.. about to sell this truck

Travis Campbell we want to where you found that bumpers its a nice setups

Y’all should go to cash hallow as well

I’ll probably head there next !

They were factory on this truck

Thanks for watching man !

jessemeanlt1 but the g80 is kind of a locker.. it would be better if you could lock it on or off though

Jeff Anderson the g80 would start to spin the 2nd tire after the other one is stuck, if it was locker the momentum of both wheels spinning evenly would not get it stuck. If you ever launch hard with a pozi you will notice that it pull to one side(that's the revolutions before it engages). A spool, locker, welded differential would pull straight.

jessemeanlt1 yes but the g80 is an electronic locker that engages after a certain difference in wheel rotation that is why it so so harsh when it does engage not the best design I will admit but I love my z

A local shop here in Tennessee RPM off-road actually got this one for me. You can find them on FB and google. I had a hard time finding a rack on my own.

Travis Campbell, appreciate it good sir

Yeah this was back when I was stock with little experience lol

I too feel the pain lol doesn’t always stay on though

Mine did the intermittent and light as well, it's a easy fix there are videos on RU-vid about it, basically you take the ABS controller off and carefully pull it apart and solder 2 connections that have cracked due to age and vibration and voila problem fixed reseal the controller with rtv gasket and bolt back down....did it to mine took me like a hour and that was mainly because my solder gun was acting up.

2000 zr2 blazer here, ABS comes on about 1 in 5 drives, actually shut it off and restarted it waiting in a drive through just to reset the light. Who needs abs anyways? What really bothers me is the check engine light that's literally always on for an emissions sensors....bulbs gonna burn out at this rate.

got a 99 s10 zr2 and im on the same boat as all of ya's....my ABS and engine light have been on since i purchased her

It’s awful man flares are impossible

That's why I'm replacing my fenders with non zr2 fenders

I am restoring one and I can honestly say it's one of the biggest problems in my life. You want to add an LS motor? Do you have 4 wheel drive? Good luck? Need fender flares? Good luck. Lower control arms? Yeah right.

@@DAGOLFER34 Right!? Even if you find them at pick n pull good luck getting them off without breaking anything.

Probably haha I haven’t changed it yet

Travis Campbell ok cause if your abs/brake light is on usually one of your speed/abs sensor is bad..... 🤔

Its most likely the control module, I have a zr5 and the modules are known for going bad because of weak connections on the circuit board, easy fix though since it sits right on top to the right of the engine in the 4.3.

No the truck has been sold I’m in a ZR2 Colorado now

I’ve learned a lot since this video lol sold the truck too

Since then I’ve realized this lol that was my first time wheelin so I didn’t know too much haha

10-4 I have one completely stock that I hunt out of in the south and put it through hell. I have even had to drive by big trucks and pull them out as long as they ain’t framed out.

Issa weak truck

@@DAGOLFER34 ahh the ol 4.3. Power of a 4cyl with the gas mileage of a v8 🤣🤣 but my friends 4.3 Sonoma was actually a little tank. Till it blew off the oil filter 😂

They messed up with these trucks ! I wish they would’ve went with a 5.3 from the factory.. guess I’ll just have to swap mine and film it for you guys 🤔

@@DAGOLFER34 my 99 ranger is going to be overhauled soon. I bought it last year for a measly 1700 bucks. It is a 3.0 5 speed 4x4 super cab with 200k and NO RUST (hard to find in the north). But even though those are higher miles, I've seen many of the 3.0s go well over 300k, highest going up to 425k all original in a windstar. Also, I eventually planned on putting in a 4.0 ohv motor so that wasnt a big deal to me anyway, would like a 302 5.0 but they're a pain to make 4x4 unless you have a large budget and a lot of spare time, where the 4.0 is pretty much plug and play. I wish you luck on your build 🤣 I might cover the mods I do to mine

Nope that’s why I sold it.

@@DAGOLFER34 lol 😆 man I'm just picking on you.... I got a s10 4x4 beat and run down... so I sas swap and it's getting a lv3 4.3l twin turbo setup 6l80e Trans and atlas transfer case

@@DAGOLFER34 s10s are love hate relationship with me! Lol I have one with over 689,886 reliable never put on the side of the road. Have another with only 98,000 it can never get right lol always breaking down!

Zach Pringle I’ve always thought it was more fun

Mud is awful guys... 3 car washes to get it all off

Keep in mind this was years ago. Since then I’ve sold the truck and learned a lot. Now I’m wheelin a ZR2 Colorado

Wouldn’t plan on it
