you maybe lucky and already have a zerk to squeeze some grease into into it.
The clunking and thumping is common on the 98-03; 2004 these switched to a 1 peice unit (wonder why?).

you can you the above as a reference. Also, I would suggest purchasing a manual (costs about 20 bucks; google for it).

Same as the instructions link Ryan provided. Remove the flange bolts at the differential input, pull/cut the clamps off the boot. Slide the driveshaft apart, clean, regrease, reinstall. Make sure you line everything up the way it was for balancing purposes.
