Market analysis

Why does the Toyota 4Runner strut cost more?

A used Toyota 4Runner strut carries a median asking price of $135, which is 80% higher than the Fiat 500 at $75. Supply also plays a role: Toyota 4Runner has 4,778 priced listings versus 1,912 for Fiat 500, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.

The Toyota 4Runner average ($164) runs 21% above its median ($135), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Our guide covers 11 model years for the Toyota 4Runner (2015–2025) but only 8 for the Fiat 500 (2015–2024), so the Toyota 4Runner data reflects a broader range of generations.

Only 67% of Fiat 500 strut listings include a posted price (1,912 of 2,848 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.

The Toyota 4Runner strut is interchangeable across 16 model years versus just 11 for the Fiat 500 — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.

At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Fiat 500 is 46% cheaper ($75 vs $140) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used strut

  • Check the shaft for pitting or rust — a pitted shaft will chew through the new seal and start leaking immediately.
  • Look for oil weeping around the seal area. A light film is normal on older units; dripping means it's spent.
  • Confirm whether the strut mount and spring are included, or if you'll need to transfer yours over.
  • Match the part to your vehicle's suspension type (standard, sport, electronic/adaptive) — they're not interchangeable.
