I watched this in high school and I graduated in '03, in one of the episodes from this series they were talking about the "new" '99 Tahoe finally getting the Z71 package, and they also said the S10 was new as well and they discontinued that in '04. So my best guess is this aired sometime in '98-99, but definitely no later than '03. I think at that point the LS was still very new, and I believe still only in the Corvette. At the very least it didn't have the reputation it has now for cheap easy power.
I wish Lakewood still had these traction bars... Or I wish I knew the measurements on these to order some universal ones. I have a stock '02 4.3L Xtreme sitting outside my front door with the 4.3L. Dead ringer for this build sans the poor color choice stripes. Even with the 4.3L, you can light the tires up and hop like a damned retarded bunny.
My friend at my first duty station had an extended cab white Xtreme... With the 4-banger. 0-60 in a hope and a prayer, but believe me, it existed. I used to blow his doors off with a 5-speed 4-banger YJ on a Skyjacker 3" lift with 31x10.50s on it. They SHOULDN'T have offered the Xtreme with a 4, but they did. As I type, I have a stock '02 Xtreme right outside my front door with the 4.3L that looks exactly like this one without the horrid yellow stripes.
Cool truck when it existed
Great build but the yellow stripes ruin the truck. I would have used white or black stripes.
Exactly, But for me, I would leave it stock-looking.
Cool truck. To bad GM crushed it.
86👍's up G&G thanks again for having us all along with you
I remember when this aired...always wondered why they took that eautiful red truck and uglified it with god awful yellow stripes 🤢🤮🤣😂
Gratefulness Beautiful Souls
How fucking old is this that they are doing tuneport swaps instead of ls swaps?
LT1 swap from a camaro.
@@willymaze368 did the lt1 have the same shit design throttle body the tpi 350 did?

The yellow stripes were a mistake. 100%
Too bad random technology isn't around anymore
How much torque and horsepower does it take to adjust to operate a 4L80E transmission
?
@10:47 the Extreme is driving under an X in the sky caused by atmospheric aerosol injection which is part of Solar Radiation Management
