Hummmmmm........ either:

(1) Your front struts are worn out or leaking; or,

(2) Your driving style is too aggressive or loads too heavy for your stock suspension to handle.

Jack the front of the car up and remove each front wheel. Look at the strut body to see if there are any signs of leaking fluid or if anything is broken or otherwise amiss. If the struts are leaking, then I suggest you replace with something other than standard replacement Monroe shocks (either Blistiens or Ranchos). If the struts are not leaking, then maybe your driving style is too aggressive for the stock suspension. If this is the case, then upgrade as necessary or change your driving style. Front suspension upgrade would start at $700 and go up from there depending upon the modifications.

Does a 2006 Toyota 4Runner Sport need a 2 or 4 Wheel Alignment

There is nothing to adjust on the rear because it is a solid axle, most dealers and alignment shops do a 4wheel alignment anyway and they don't charge less for a two wheel alignment. A 4wheel alignment also reveals any possible bent suspension components or frame misalignment..

Replacing front turn signal light bulb on 2006 toyota 4runner

You have to crawl under the car to get this done. Identify the location of the bulb then crawl underneath and locate the appropriate connector. Grab the connector with your hand and twist the connector right-to-left. The connector will then disengage from the plastic housing and you can withdraw the connector and the bulb from the housing. Once disconnected, grab the bulb with one hand and the connector with the other, and pull out the bulb straight out (no twisting). Replace is the reverse. Easy. Should take less than 1 minute.

Half the light is out on the information console in my 2006 Toyota 4runner. Can I fix that?

Blown bulbs , easy!.
Remove the shroud under the steering column , ( the one where the fuse box and bonnet release is situated)
This will give you access to the bottom screws of the binacle around the speedo ( other screws up from underneath above the speedo)
Once binacle removed you will see the screws holding the speedo in, remove them and ( with the steering tilted fully down) remove the speedo head, there should be 3 or 4 electrical plugs in the back of the speedo ( don't worry they only fit one way and can't be muddled up )
In the back of the speedo are twist clips retaining the bulbs, remove and replace blown bulbs.
Reverse procedure to reinstall speedo.
A magnetic phillips head screwdriver is handy to get the screws back in without loosing them into the back of the dashboard.
