No dude wd40 wont work. I would do that U-Joint sooner than later too. You dont want to get stranded without a drive line

^ +2. That is starnge about having a U Joint or a CV joint go bad so fast. I see you ae rolling 26's, and that may be a factor. Would you say yoiu drive your truck pretty hard?

That may be covered under your powertrain warranty, unless they deny because of the wheels. Also, is it the front or back joint?
