Default Front Drive Shaft Lube ????

Do all 2006 4X4 2500 CTD's have a female type greese hole on the front drive shaft? I jacked the front driver's tire off the ground last night and had my son turn it. I could not find the fitting. If my truck has one is it on the front or the back part of the drive shaft. I looked for it for quite a while with no luck.

I will add it to the Dodge CTD info thread so it's easier to find. if there are any other threads that should be added let me know...

4th link. . .2nd post. https://dodgeforum.com/m_578941/tm.htm

I guess we prolly need to make a tech thread with all the links in it. would also be a good thread to list the best sites to order repair, go fast, and suspension parts.

I read in this post https://dodgeforum.com/m_578941/tm.htm that the grease fitting is only on 2005 & up. Does this also include the 2004.5? Since they changed engines at half year!
