Sure, they can fail if the grease didn't get distributed and they can
fail if the straps are stretched. The straps stretch easy from
vibration and are only a couple bucks to replace.

Yes, there is a "ball thingy" (I don't know what it's really called) in
my front drive shaft and it was completely dried out and extremely worn
when I had the shaft out a couple months ago. I'll be taking the shaft
out tonight and check that and the u-joints again and see if I can't
get this figured out. Thanks for the help.
