Subject:When was the last time you re-packed your CV joints?

I was going through some shelves in my garage this morning and came across
a container of the CV lube that Chris sells/sold at T3techniques. It's
called CV-2, a stinky muddy-looking heavy grease. It got me wondering when
was the last time I packed my axle joints because I used this stuff. I
looked it up in my log, the date was 2013, almost 60,000 miles ago.

This seems like a long time compared to what I had previously been used to.
Thoughts and experiences?

Now that I have stated this publicly, I realize that the CV joints are not
long for this world. But I had to ask.
