Do original ball joints have grease zerks?

On my '72 K-10 'burb, the ball joints I removed had no grease zerks, or even holes for them.

Also, were the front axle shaft u-joints grasable? The one on the passenger side has no way to grease it, but the one on the driver's side has a little screw in the end of one of the caps that can be removed, and a needle fitting can be used to grease it.

Just wondering what's original. The new ball joints I put in have grease zerks.
