you should have automatic locking hubs, which could be shot....if you have manual hubs (which i doubt) they need to be locked..

Yeah...I agree with Prerunner....sounds like your hubs are shot....I think it was pretty rare for those trucks to come with locking hubs....my '92 I had had automatic locking hubs and almost every s-10/15 i've seen hasn't had manual hubs. But they could be out there.
