Seems to be a normal thing to happen to Frontiers. I don't know how many pieces Nissan actually put a grease zerk on. But you could go out and buy a grease gun and squirt them all.

There's something about rear leaf springs squeeking. I believe there is a TSB from Nissan on this.
I don't have any grease zerts on my truck. It's getting to where aren't any on vehicles.

My front end squeaks badly, but only when the wheel is turned all the way to one side or the other. I suspected it was something with the shocks, but after a new set of those, still squeeks. I call it a squeek; it's more of a harsh metallic creak. Wish I could figure out what the heck causes it.

Strain of the front suspension. You have the wheels turned all the way to one side... this puts strain on the steering system, and the suspension. So when you move and hit bumps or changes in the road, the suspension travels and rubs all over the place.

Check your stabilizer bar bushings.

I had mine in the Shop because frontend noise was driving me nuts they put aframe bushings in. Didn't fix it cost me over $400. The dealer said it most likely the stab. bushings like you said. They said the parts dept. sells a ton of them. I going to try that and see if that works.
