Default Squeak Around the Rear Half-shafts

Greetings,

I apologize beforehand if this has been tackled elsewhere.
I have located squeaking at the rear half-shaft meeting points. Please recommend solutions. I only read that they are called half-shafts last night. Note: I had a jet washer do some job under there recently. Looking forward. Thanks

The universals have grease fittings. Have they been lubed?

Yes there are two grease fittings (one on either end of the half shafts in the U joint). I top it up at every oil change
