Are you saying that the newer Toyotas don't have a grease fitting for the spider joints, slip-yoke, and double cardian joints? Approximately what model years did that start? I realize that will vary between different models.

I have a 2007 Tundra with 416,000 miles. I have greased the driveline with each oil change, which is typically 6,000 to 7,000 miles. In winter, when it is cold and wet out, I may skip it until the next oil change. 
Oil is changed every 3 to 4 months as we put around 500 miles a week on it. I use whatever lithium NLGI #2 I can find on Amazon or local autoparts store.
Have only replaced one U joint, and that was back at around 160,000 miles.

Spicer says 3kto 5k off road and 10k-15k regular road use on big stuff. I grease our fj every oil change 4k-5k max.
When we bought it with 151k I'm positive it had never been greased going off the complete lack of grease under it.
