I have found that sealed bearing last just as long and greasable. About 40 to 50K.

You should get more than 27,000 on u-joints!

Don't jump to conclusions ,it can be other things !
1)backlash in rear diff
2)slip joint in driveshaft
3)worn spider gears in rear diff
4 )rear axle bearings or splines on axle shafts
5) u-joints
6)chk your lugnuts also
7)internal trans problems (sun gears)
spicer is factory but non greasable
