Ramps or Lift?

I plan to greese my drive shaft this sat and I was wondering can I do this with a set of ramps or do I need to take my "06" runner sport to a place that has a lift and let them do it ?

Unless you've downsized the wheels and tires that came on your 4RNR, you shouldn't need to use ramps or a lift. Park your truck on a reasonably level spot and slide/pull yourself underneath. You will probably need to move the truck forward or back a few inches to rotate the driveshaft so the zerk fittings are accessible underneath from a side angle.
Using ramps might allow you to roll under the truck on a "creeper," which would keep you off the ground and keep you from getting quite as dirty as you might otherwise. If you have access to a lift that's the easiest (and cleanest!) way to grease the driveline fittings, but most of us aren't that lucky.
