Default CV Joint trouble

so... I am having issues with my passenger side cv joint, the inner joint that get inserted into the transmission. I've now gone through 2 in the last 30,000 miles. It's like the joint is squeezing out the grease and going dry for no apparently good reason. This is a 91 integra, b18a, stock transmission, stock suspension plus energy hyperflex bushings. Anyone have this problem? I have a lifetime warranty on the axle, so I have no problem going and exchanging it, but I don't paricularly like having to buy 2 quarts of syncromesh every 15k when the axle needs to be replaced. I mean, the boot isn't even torn, it's like something is happening to the joint itself, but I'm not sure what the problem is. I also have ES mount inserts if that helps.

seriously. I just replaced the axle like 4 weeks ago. And this one looks like grease exploded on it. No sign of the boot tearing or anything. I just don't know.
