It seems a better fit as the U/J sure does more than 1000 rpm

John Deere makes (or did make, as of 4-5 years ago) two types of corn head grease. One for slow speed gearboxes like you mentioned, and another one for high speed gearboxes. So a guy maybe should have both-slow speed for the steering gear, and high speed for the U-joint cavity.
