I see a lot on 95-97 FZJ-80's (including the newb links/threads), but not a whole lot on '94 FZJ's (I've searched). I've read that the transmission, suspension, interior, brakes, OBD II, etc. were updated/new in '95. That being said...is there anything about the equipment in the '94 which would make you shy away from one (ex. the "bus" transmission)?
While I'd prefer a '95+ 80-series, I can't think of a reason why a '94 wouldn't work for me. The '94 has the newer/more powerful engine and is just as reliable as the older/newer FJ/FZJ-80's. I'm primarily looking for a daily driver, not a trail rig (in case that has an impact on your advice).
I'm going from a 190k mile lifted '97 Jeep Cherokee, so any FJ/FZJ will be a step up.
