Greaseable or non-greaseable which is better? Which u-joint type is best for YOU will depend upon your budget, operating conditions, maintenance, engine power, and expected length of ownership. From a standpoint of durability under most operating conditions, our Torque King® cold-forged factory lubed universal joints will outlast greaseable universal joints by a considerable margin due the the hardness of the cold-forged cross and superiority of the multiple lip seals. Our greaseable u-joints are quality, USA made parts with hot-forged crosses and single lip seals. For stock engine trucks with good maintenance, greaseable u-joints will last for a long time....but, it has been our experience that most people do not grease their vehicles as frequently as they should and most do not use a quality synthetic like QU90018 Pyroplex Plus. If you miss a lube interval during wet winter weather, water will probably infiltrate past the single lip seal and presto you have a rusty, failed u-joint!
