Greaseable upper ball joints?

So after reading on this site a bit and seeing all the lower ball joint failure info i decided to replace my originals that have over 200k on them. I was surprised to see the boots were intact and i didnt feel any play in them before removal but nonetheless i feel a lot better with the new ones installed. Several months back i replaced my passenger front wheel bearing and upper ball joint. Heres where my question comes in. My new lowers have grease fittings (sankei 555) and my upper i went cheap on from autozone has no grease fitting. I noticed after one mild off road camping trip my upper lost a lot of grease. I can probably stuff more in but was wondering if anyone has seen an upper with a grease fitting as i intend to replace my driver side upper and redo my passenger if i can find a better one? Also ive seen the total chaos and other upper arms with the better joints but there out of my price range. Im mainly curious if any replacement uppers are greaseable. Any info is appreciated.

Yeah i noticed the autozone upper boot was really loose on top and soft. It actually seperates from the shaft at some angles. I guess i will get some factory ones. Thanks for the info.
