I replaced my U-joints from the permanently sealed ones to MOOG one with the little tiny grease port (I hate that thing)
When I installed the MOOG I remove the grease that was in there and replaced with Green Grease http://www.autozone.com/greases-and-gear...ease/945652_0_0
After installation I pumped (with the special adapter) until green grease can out all 4 corners on all three U-joints.
At 5K Miles on I greased them again with the same grease and gun and much to my surprise It tool quite a few pumps to get old grease coming out of the caps. I had a light on them and all three joints did the same. I could see quite a splatter of grease on the underside of the truck so it looks like it got slung out of the caps.
Is there a better grease for U joints on a DD (2007 Tacoma) that pull a boats a couple times a month?
I don't like the idea of the joints running dry between oil changes. ;/ AND I'm not crawling under there every gas fillup either.
