If you don't see any zerks, then the u-joints are sealed and you don't have to worry. The factory u-joints are usually this way but the replacement types sometimes have zerks.

That's referring to the slip yoke--the splined front section of the shaft which interlocks with tailshaft of the trans. Some of the users have mentioned that a teflon type lube is used on this.
