Does a '92 245 have set screws in the u-joints that can be removed to lube? 200 1992

Hello All:

My '92 245 has some driveline vibration that I think might be due to worn or bound up u-joints. I have noted some posts in the past indicating that some RWD cars have a set screw in the u-joints that can be removed and a zerk fitting installed temporarily to allow lubing the joint.

This morning I put the car up on stands and crawled underneath-- I couldn't see any fittings in the joints-- I wiped them off a bit where I would have expected to see things, but no luck...

The joints appear original-- no sign of any work on the driveshaft.

Are some of these cars equipped with different joints, or do I need reading glasses?
