I can't seem to find what spec to torque the wheel lug nuts to on the 4wd van. Also does this number change if you install 15" samurai / sidekick wheels?

76 ft lbs per the owners manual. As long as the new wheels are steel than the torque spec remains the same.

Mod EDIT — torque specs are the SAME for 2WD and 4WD

Speaking of lug nuts, what is the type and size that's used for both vans on stock rims?

14" OEM 4WD stock rims--

14" OEM steel 2WD stock rims--

I do have other 14" Toyota rims for my 2WD van for example Supra rims (they don't fit) need seated lug nuts but I don't know what size?

78'-81' Supra--

82'-85' Supra--

82'-85' Celica--

81'-86' Cressida Snowflake--

Thank you

As far as wheel nuts/studs go:

Thread pitch on wheel studs : 12mm x 1.5

All steel rims use a "tapered" acorn nut

Most alum rims use the shank style nuts with washers
The length and diameter of the shank is important as it is the washer that needs to take up against the rim, when torqued.
All Toyota nuts use a 13/16" socket.

By comparison, my Suzuki has M12x1.5 studs with 3/4" socket required and the alum rims use acorn nuts
