    If it's a 4x4, the front driveshaft U-joints should have zerk fittings.

    Might not. I spent 30 minutes taking off all the skids and running my fingers all through the two front u joints on 2020 TRD OT. There was not ONE zerk to be found in the front. On the 2016, you could at least feel the zerks when you got your fingers in there.

    My 2015 has them. On the front shaft they are on the inside of the spider. On the rear, they are on the end of a cap.
