Being the previous owner of a Gen 2 4runner I know there were times that a factory service manual was worth its weight in gold! On one of my previous forrays into my local bone yard, I came upon a recent addition. I have been raining for several days when I noted a 1990 4runner that had been relagated to be a parts vehicle when I noted in the rear floor board area what appeared to be a very much worse for the wear, FSM. Totally soaked through but still with some potential, I inquired about the manuals and the counter clerk was more then happy to let me procure said volumes. I promptly secured them and took them home to begin what was going to be a very long process of trying to dry these two books out without them sticking completely together and becomeing a paper mache brick.

Long story short, I was able to rescue both volumes. They are all there and the pages are complete, seperated but none worse for the wear. But for someone who is trying to figure out how to take something apart or rebuild something in their Gen 2, at least you have a real service manual. I can provide you with a few pics if you desire but make me an offer. I don't have a need for these as I now have a Gen 3 so tell me what they are worth to you, ask for pics and I'll post a few in a day or two.

 

might be good for someone who doesnt want to access the free manuals on the site i guess...

 

they will definitely save grease smeared keyboard/monitor on the shop 'puter! i have a set for my rig and use both online and hard copy.

nice find and save, make ritzy an offer folks.
