new owner of 994runner

I just bought a 99 4runner SR5, 2wd, AT, with 90k miles. Paid $10.4K. First is this is a good price? Second, I done some basic maintenance that I think is good to do, but I could use any additional input on what else I should do as preventive maintenance.
I have changed spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, pcv valve, brake fluid, new rotors, shims, and pads. I changed the transmission fluid (drain and fill). I plan on changing the rear differential fluid, whats the capacity and is synthetic fluid ok.
Thanks in advance!

Price seems good. I believe the capacity is about 2.7qts so get 3 qts. You do know about transmission a drain and fill wont cut it, so get it flushed. Also seafoam it if you havent.

Thats a good price. If it is a v6 get the drive belts and timing belt changed. Synthetics are fine. Most people on this board like Amsoil.

PS welcome to yotatech and how about some pics.

It is a V6. The timing belt, drive belts cam and crank seals, water pump, tran flush were done at 82k miles. What is seafoam for tranny maintenance. I do intend to drop the pan and clean out the screen as this was not done with the tranny flush. Also can any one tell where can I buy those push pins that are on the doors and that hold other plastic pieces of the interior as some are broken.
Thanks for the replies!

Get them at the dealer or online. I always buy exras, because I never know when I'm going to need them.
