U joints

[amtc]

Good evening,

I was researching u joints for my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 and I came across a company called Torque King. I have always used non greaseable Spicer U joints but this company's products look pretty robust too. Anyone have any experience with Torque King u joints?

I have used them for axle and transmission parts. Personally I have never had an issue with the non greaseable OEM style joints.. one less service item and one less place for grease to leak out or contaminants to get in. JM2C

Greasable joints have the advantage of flushing out water if you spend time crossing deep water. Other than that, it come down to preference on sealed or greasable. I have greasable in the front axle u-joints, and not on issue greasing them when doing the other maintenance items on the truck. Have a small grease gun (type used for grease chain saw bars) that I carry in the truck. This is for the few times that I have to cross a small creek on a hunting property.

I run only non-greasable for years and years in every Environment. Not the slightest problem.
