Hiya,

just lookin through the tradingpost and there are a couple of 4Runners for sale at a decent price which has sparked my interest.

Im wondering what year did they get the 4 Doors?

What are the motors like on the 80s early 90s models like? (i would love a diesel)

Also, are all the Hilux wagons called 4Runners?

thanks,
Shem

oh yeah, besides the surfs :D

How thirsty are the 3.0V6 motors?

Did any of the 4doors have Solid front axle? or are all the 4door wagons IFS??

No solid front axles in the 4 door 4runner all the 4runners that shape are IFS.

But remember... IFS is great for cruising between Sydney and Adelaide mate ! (worked for me)

SAS conversion will cost you way too much. Let me know when you're up for a cruise - wouldn't mind you transporting a cargo barrier for me too. ;)

:cool: cheers, sam.
