I may just be missing it, or not understanding the locations, but I only see one grease point on there. I know they say it's fully serviceable, though, so maybe I'm just dumb.

I have bought 5 of them. Fully greasable, even the centering ball.

1 is one my dads car, the other 3 on our cars and one on a car I sold.

The most miles we have one of them is 16k.

The only weird thing is they come not painted, but they said that they have an anti-corrosion coating in them.

Email them direct for a better price.

Or call and ask for Greg.

They look to be heavier duty than stock, but not sure of the specs.

They are Precision u-joints.
I don't know why they use the 369 rather than the 380 which would be stronger.

I got one of these. Correct, not painted. I had hoped it had some clear coat on it, but it's rusting slightly now. Wouldn't be difficult to throw some rattle can something on it, but slightly disappointing.

Happy with the price. I couldn't see much difference between it and the one I took off.

A call to confirm what the HD bits are would be good.
