Checked the front drive shaft it appears to be factory with snap rings and no visible grease buttons.

Try grabbing it to check for play in the u-joints. I suspect you'll hear some bad noises - should be nice and tight.

mine was tight with no play at all but the unjoint cap was cracked at the base. I had a bad vibration. Replaced with a lucky 8 one and everything was fine after that.
i didn’t see the bad cap until old shaft removed and then I could feel it and see the bad cap

Agreed, the feel inspection is only valid with it out of the truck - 8 bolts.
