I would venture to say that you would be able to change the oil easily enough without rasing the front end. This isn't a car. Instead of jacking the thing up, go buy some ramps for $15, or whatever they are. They can only be safer anyway.

ddua,
heard of an owner's manual? the jack points are detailed in there. don't have one? then buy a chiltons or haynes at your auto parts store.
also, check the tech section here. i have a write up specifically addressing your question. also, you dont need to get ramps or jack up the truck if the following conditions apply:
- you have 16" wheels
- you're not obese and cant slide under your vehicle to remove the drain plug.

Lucky for you, you don't have to worry about any of this. The 4Runner is high enough off the ground where you don't need to raise it to get under it. Best of luck with your oil change...
