With the 2013 and up trucks, they have the CAD so the front end components are not rotating all the time like previous models.  Because of this I don't think it's as critical to lube this joint as much as the previous models.  My truck has the protection package (or something like that) which includes a skid plate covering the transfer case which makes lubing this joint a major PITA.  I think I will remove the plate on an annual basis to make this task a bit easier but I will still make sure my son isn't in the garage at the time because the air tends to get a bit "thick" while performing this task. :M
