I just traded an 11 Tacoma for a 14 unlimited and plan on doing most of my maintenance. The Taco had its ujoints greased every 12k or so. Are there any fittings on a JKU that can be serviced? Haven't seen any yet.
Thanks all.... I guess there are ball joint replacement threads (if so I'll find). Does anyone have an estimate of the life cycle of existing u and ball joints??

balljoints will depend on your tires and how you use the jeep. stock? probably 60-100k. 37's? 3-10k in my experience.
I have personally never broken or worn out a stock U-joint. ring and pinion usually go before ujoints break but there is really no way to say for sure. Ujoints are one of those things that Spicer can make well. not so much balljoints...
