This 1994 Toyota 4Runner factory service and repair manual is tied to your truck's exact year, engine and trim, whether it left the line with the 2.4L four (22RE) or the 3.0L V6 (3VZ-E), so the clearances and tightening sequences you work to are the ones Toyota published for that build rather than numbers carried over from an adjacent model year.

Known issues on the 1994 4Runner. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers exterior lighting: 16,270 combination corner and bumper lamp assemblies of various part numbers, sold by SaberSport as aftermarket equipment for a range of passenger vehicles, were called back because decreased lighting visibility may result in a vehicle crash. The second covers the steering relay rod on certain pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles, where the steering wheel is repeatedly turned under conditions that demand high steering effort and power assist; if the vehicle continues to be operated in that condition, the relay rod may fracture. Owners have filed 15 complaints for the year and Toyota has issued 15 technical service bulletins.
Whether you are checking the steering relay rod and linkage for play, tracing a lighting fault back to the lamp assemblies, or working through a service interval on either engine, the manual holds you to Toyota's own procedure and the correct figure for this 1994 4Runner.
