Talking How to grease the slip yoke or u joints 2005 Dodge Dakota

Hello,

This is an update from my other tread.. About 2005 dodge dakota i recently bought..

I felt tug or bumping from under before complete stop and accelerate from stop.. I read from tacoma forum that have the same problem like mine...
He grease the u joints and slip yoke and the tug or bumping went away..

How can I grease the U joint and slip yoke on 2005 dakota... When I went down there, I can not find any grease fittings..

How can I lubricate this Parts....
Any suggestion will help....
Thanks

the u-joints, from the factory, are non greaseable. As far as I know, there is no "slip joint" on the Dakota. I have an 05 crewcab 4x4 and the driveshaft is one piece. There is a u-joint on the differential end, but the other end is just slipped inside the transfer case. no grease fittings. I recently replaced my rear u-joint with an aftermarket piece that does have a grease fitting. But the factory one does not.
