Spicer Life Series – Can be identified by the booted slip member (picture 2) and the grease zerk fitting located at
the center of the u-joint cross with hard plastic bearing cup seals.
Spicer Life XL Series – From the outside looks the same as the standard SPL Life Series, but will have a black
plastic cap over the grease zerk fitting (picture 4) and soft boot bearing cup seals (picture 3, right side). To grease
this XL Series, simply remove the black plastic cap and properly purge the u-joint with lubricant.
