Default Driveshaft looks new, is it?

I just got a used 2002 Disco 2 a couple months back, and I'm trying to churn through all the problems and prevent new ones where possible. I read that the driveshaft must be replaced. It looks to me like it already has been, but I'd feel a little better if anyone could just give their opinion.

Regardless of if it is new or not, it doesn't look like it has the appropriate grease fittings, so it should be replaced.

You can see on some pictures on my thread here the different types of fittings it should have: https://landroverforums.com/forum/di...65/#post664563

That looks like the stock driveshaft. Try and get one that is fully serviceable with 5 zerk/grease fittings.
