Lt wheel squeaks

I have a 2009 Drive cart. The Lt wheel started squeaking yesterday. Could it be the wheel bearing?

Could be, jack that corner up, and spin it at slow/med speeds while listening and feeling for any roughness, slop, or clicking.

Here is the link. Hope this helps me get an answer. Thanks

Check that spindle nut really soon. 75 lb/ft.

I have seen only 1 failed wheel bearing in those axles in the entire production run. It has a massive bearing compared to typical cart wheel bearings.
