Default Greasing driveshaft

So I just greased my driveshaft but I didn't see grease coming out all the way around. It looks like only one side (if that makes sense) got fully greased. Did I do something wrong?


Thanks

Have you had your front drive shaft rebuilt with greasable u-joints, did you grease both slip joints?

When I greased mine the same thing happened, I am about to grease them again, and if the blockage hasnt passed, I am going to try this interesting tool I found at Tractor Supply, it has a grease fitting like a grease gun, but you fill it with penetrating oil and it has a plunger that you strike with a hammer, forcing the penetrating oil into the grease fitting and into the joint freeing up whatever blockage is keeping the rest of the joint from getting greased.

Oh and like Mike asked,
is the front driveshaft fitted with greaseables??
Important im sure you know
