In the market for a used 4Runner...what to look for?

With a little one on the way, I've come to terms that I'm going to have to sell the Tacoma. :cry: The regular cab just won't be enough room for us. Therefore, I'm in the market for a used 4Runner. I'm looking for one in the $4500 range, because it'll be used as a means of getting around in the winter and a trail rig, plus I can just pay cash for it instead of going into more debt. Anyways, what are some things I need to look out for other than your basic used car stuff? What recalls were on the early 90's 4Runners? I know there was one regarding the head gasket or something, but I'm not sure what years. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

use the search feature, type in ' 2nd gen head gasket' or similar and check out the sticky at the top for the front end recall.
