Question for the group. The shaft from the power steering box has two sets of u-joints. There is no zerk fitting. Should those joints be lubed, and if so how and with what?

If you are talking about the ones between the steering box and steering wheel, short answer, no.

AL No service required as these are in a protected area, lube new for lifetime. Failure of this joint is virtually "none" AL

I Agree, These joints are factory lubed for life! Just check for slop. Use a Flash llight and a Mag. glass and look for Cracks! Ken 99 Allure 30356
