Proud new owner of a '96 4Runner LTD and looking for a factory service manual for same. Found a number of '97 manuals but I'm wondering if there are any significant differences between the years to be concerned or not. Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated!

Thanks for that xxx ... however, the pdf is actually for a Tacoma. Mechanically they may be almost identical but there's a variety of differences in body & electrical info. I'm an Old Skool kinda guy ... I like to have the book sitting right in front of me while wrenching and I don't have a laptop. lol
No Way I'm bringing my desk top out to the black hole of my garage lol

 

http://www.ncttora.com/fsm/ That's where that manual came from.

 

yep, checked the site and it's the same download ... a '97 Tacoma. Must be a mistaken link maybe?

Found a few '97 manuals on Ebay just not sure if there are any significant differences between the years i.e. parts, locations, specs etc.

 

96-98 are all the same

 

Um, you'd be right for about 98% of it, but there are some changes in the wiring harness after about 97 or so.

This guy is off his nut on prices:

I paid less than $50 for my FSM set for my 1991.
