Have you ever changed the driveshaft u-joints? As I said, mine have no zerks and when it comes time it will be another project...

One has a little slack, but I am leaving it be for now. No noise coming from it.

Not a hard job at all, looks worse than it is. Pick up a ball-joint press kit from a pawnshop or borrow one and lock it up in a good vise. Good set of needle nose pliers or snap ring pliers, dead blow hammer, small wire brush, solvent, red loctite, and maybe a good beer chilled after your done.

Nothing to it. You just need a press or good sized vise to get the old caps out.
I prefer them to not have zerks. The greasable ones sling grease everywhere and are also not as strong as maintenance free ones.
I had spicers on my old truck for 100k miles.
