What do you guys recommend and why the nongrease able joints or grease able? Its not for my bird its for my classic non hi performance.
 
We are moving to the non grease plastic joints now due to over 10 years of testing and thier failure rate being 20% less than the other non grease joints along with thier improvement in the design and ability.

I only put in grease joints, but that is because the car is driven so little and I only grease it every since months at the most.
 
Pro of the Teflon non-greasable: A well made one will be "tighter" and have less slop and play in it, up until the boot decays and dirt and grit gets in there.

Pro of the greasable: A well built one, while looser than the Teflon designs, will be, well, looser.

For the U-joints, I went greasable in my DD, but would go non-greasable (permanently lubed) if I were building a performance machine.
