It's a double-edged issue. If it has a Zerk, then you can grease. But then you must grease. Do you have a grease gun?

If no Zerk, then it's a sealed U-joint so you cannot grease. But it'll wear out at some point, whereas a U-joint that you can grease can last lifetime (if you faithfully grease it).

Look at it this way -- either a Zerk or a jerk.

I'd go for the Zerk.
