You might have to depending on how hammered the joint is, mine was dry as a bone and was clanking while I was driving, I have seen people take apart cv joints and rebuild them and grease em up and they are fine but that depends on how bad everything is inside the boot. Take the driveshaft off the truck and see how it looks.

If your talking about your 1996, that Joint is just a couple of U joints put together in a wierd way. I just replaced the u joints on mine, and re assembled it.
