In 1994, at long last, the 4Runner was given side-impact protectionДЄnd optional antilock brakes. Springs and greater rigidity allowed by the new structure, the ride andД¬ornering were both improved.

The suspension still used a solid axle in the rear, Rather than a pickup with a cap, it had a real roof and a totallyД®nclosed interior. Full instrumentation, including an altimeter and roll and pitch meters, was standard the four-speed electronically controlled automatic was available in 1987.ДЎ990 brought the first 4Runner that most people would recognize: The 4Runner had a removable hard top, letting owners turn it into an open-air vehicle. AД¬osmetic resytyling came in 1987, just after the suspension work butД«efore the new engine. Years later, in 1988, an optional 3-liter V6, replacing the turbo. Independent front suspension was probably chosen for its greater groundД¬learance and so there would be enough room for a V6, and, two short Turbocharged, 135 horsepower SR-5 Turbo which lasted for just one year.

This makes me more open to the idea of owning one, knowing I could easily upgrade the shocks for example.The Toyota 4Runner was first introduced in 1984, based on Now after running aftermarket suspensions on Tacos I know exactly what IвЂ™d do first on a 4Runner (as you mentioned). I noticed how bad the body roll/brake dive was. I did test drive one, but that was before owning any Tacomas. Surprisingly no one here has told me to just go test drive a 4Runner yet. It took me a while to realize every time I sat in my Tacoma it was actually causing my back to hurt more. If the seat were more supportive I think it could be ok. I think the 4Runner is slightly better in regards to forward visibility, but not sure the seating position is any different. The seating position being so low to the floor didnвЂ™t help at all, and although I had a power seat I couldnвЂ™t raise it muchвЂ¦ IвЂ™m tall so my headroom was limited, but more so my visibility out the front got really bad when the seat was raised. My second Tacoma actually has softer foam in the seat and caused me more back pain. My other complaint with the Tacomas is the seating position and the seat itself. As of now I donвЂ™t see any information whatsoever about that since the new Tundra is their main focus. I am actually excited to see what they do with the 4Runner. Toyota has vowed to have an electric or hybrid version of all their models by 2025вЂ¦ so I agree with you there. I see that the 2022 4Runner is mostly unchanged.
