You may have a wire on the wrong plug or on the wrong place on the distributor cap. This will cause it to miss because of the sequence of the fire order.

Why would changing the plugs and wires in a 92 s10 4x4 cause it not to crank?

If by "not to crank" you mean the engine won't turn over, then the problem lies with the battery and/or starter cables. If you mean "not to start", then you need to ensure the plugs are gapped correctly (new plugs are not always pre-gapped) and that the wires are seated and routed correctly. Inspect the area near the plugs and wiring in case you may have disconnected something while changing them out.
