Slip Yoke near diff?

Hey everyone. While reading the forum doing some research on a leaking pinion seal on my '05 Ex 6.0L I noticed that greasing my slip yoke should be something I take care of while the driveshaft is dropped. Something strange I've noticed is in all the pics and write ups everyone's slip yokes seem to be near the TC. Mine is back at my rear diff. Is this the sign of my trucks previous owner having work done by an idiot or is this one of the changes on the '05s?

Whew, that makes me feel a little better. Thanks for the reply. I wonder if maybe the pics I'm seeing are of F250s and not specifically Excursions.
