Read my post again,
greasable doesn't have a long service life compared to their greasable counterparts.. But you can press a joint out and pack more grease into out if you want..
:shake:
Your such a stupid phuckstick. So what part don't you believe, the fact I had the truck or the fact I didn't want a 1000hp street truck? :hehe: What you should be questioning is the 250hp truck blowing u-joints in two. I've seen more trucks blow apart ring/pinions than joints. I don't know about you but I'd rather replace diff's than $10 u-joints.:what:
If you like solid so much buy OX joints, sure they won't last a month with no lube but hey we can't have 250hp trucks shredding drivelines can we?
Any particular reason your trying your hardest to be an asshat?
A solid non-greasable U-joint will be stronger than a Greasable one. That is a fact. A solid piece of steel is going to be stronger than one with a hole in the middle. Is it really necessary? That is debatable.
Service life is a different matter all together. A greasable one will last longer if they get greased! Non-greasable ones usually have better seals and do a better job at keeping contaminants out. However, if stuff does get in them, It's not coming out. The greasable ones you can always pump more grease into to get water and junk out. However, If you never grease them, they they are not going to last as long as the non-greasable ones.

Edit: Thought I would add, Drivelines I prefer Greasable. I have not had any problems with them. Axle joints see a lot more torque and I prefer solid ones there.
