The lettering on my PS reservoir top decal is is worn off and a search revealed a a similar reservoir with a yellow sticker like this one...

and then some with a silver sticker like this one shown on a Land Cruiser reservoir ...

Both of these stickers wrap nearly half way around the top, but a closer look at my decal shows that it does not wrap around that far. The reservoir on my 87 4Runner looks just like this and you can see the decal size is a little smaller ...

This suggests neither of the decals above are what was used on the 1987 (an possibly all first gen) 4Runner. Does your decal wrap half way around or almost half way? Can you read the lettering on your decal?

I believe this is the mystery label ...

My power steering reservoir top label looks just about the same as yours.

Do you know what the year and model is of the good label you posted?

The good label with the red lettering is a reproduction label I put on my 87 4Runner a couple days ago. I made the label this past week after a little time looking through pics of various Toyota's from the 80's and looking at my friends older Supra's. My take away is that in the late 80's or early 90's Toyota changed the Caution label from this 1/3 circle design with red lettering to the half-circle design with black lettering on a yellow background. Landcruiser's seem to have a half-circle design with blue lettering that has a different message/writing.

The radius on my reproduction label isn't shaped quite right so I have a little tweaking to do before it's a better OEM match.
