    Today while I was greasing my u joints I noticed on my rear u joint the plastic seal on one of the caps was cracked. Is this a reason to replace the u joint or is it still good?

    Better safe than sorry. They are not expensive. Time to replace.

    You have some time. No need to worry as long as you keep greased.
