Default Stiff and squeaky front end on 2018 Drive 2 Yamaha

I'm new to Yamaha. Always had Club Car. Front suspension seems stiff and squeaky. No grease fittings that I could see. Any ideas?

There are no grease fittings in the front.
You may have to disconnect the tie rod ends or drop the lower control arm to see what is squeaking. Could be the king pin or the rubber bushings. Might even be the shock.
I have had more squeaks come out of the back or even the steering column.

Yeah I would agree if this were one of my carts the first thing I would do is pull the king pin bushings out and heavy grease them as there are no grease fittings for them...

I chased a front end squeak for quite some time on mine. Actually ended up being loose bolts on the bases of the supports for the top. Felt really stupid after chasing it for so long. In my defense I am completely deaf in one ear and have no sense of what direction a sound is coming from.
