    Following with the maintenance, manual indicates grease driveshaft and joints every 15k miles. But, also indicate lithium grease #2 for "2TR-FE" only.

    What about the V6 model? It is the same grease?

    You're not interpreting it correctly. Only 4x4 models(4-cyl and V6) and Pre-Runner with the 4cyl have greasable U-joints. 5-lug and Pre-runner V6 have non greasable "sealed-for-life" U-joints. You want to use lithium based grease. Not a high pressure moly grease like used in ball joints and tie rods.

    Thanks!
    Also went under the truck to have a look. And... yes grease fittings are there.

    Any though about this grease?
