I didnt find any zerk fitting on my ujoints (E450 Axis) but I did check to make sure they were tight .....along with the center drive shaft carrier.

Normally you can get like 75K+ miles out of ujoints (in my experience) and they are easy (and cheap) to replace. So unless your driving off road a lot or heavy loads/towing you should be fine until 75 K miles IMO (but check at least once a year).

On my jeep I started replacing them every 40K miles (or so) to be safe but I make sure I have zerk fittings on new joints and lubed them twice a year.

Jacked up Jeeps that get used off road some go though U joints much quicker.
