I may be getting an 86 4runner from a coworker at my job. Its got a 22re with about 254k on the odometer. The passenger side tail light area is a little crunched in, but i'll mainly be using this runner for camping/wheeling, so i can keep my pickup in good condition. It's got an inclinometer. It also has the automatic hubs, which will probably be the first thing I change. Is there anything other issues I should be looking for that is 4runner specific ?

rust along where the top meets the body, rear fenderwells, body mounts, and around the windshield. Check the rear window motor condition, pretty common problem. Check the top for crack and holes. Thats off the top of my head right now

Since the 22RE engines have a timing chain, has it been changed out yet?
They are an "Interference" type, so if it goes, it can cause a lot of damage.

That would be one of the first things I would look into after getting it.

And yes, switch out the troublesome autohubs that will unlock when you roll backwards down a hill over to Aisin manual hubs.
