One shot from a full size gun in each universal joint or until the seals start to stretch. Too much grease will split the seals on the spiders and that will mean grease being thrown out and greasing needing to be done very often, possibly weekly. I get by with about a shot every 10,000 miles.
The sliding part of the shaft gets a couple of shots, no more, again every 10,000 miles or so.
