Grease Fittings

Does anyone doing there own oil changes know if there are any areas of the car that need to be greased regularly? I know on my truck I have about 20 fittings I hit every oil change. The 8 is a little bit tighter on space, and I'm having a hard time looking for fittings. If no one knows I'm going to get my 8 up on a lift and search from front to back. I have a hard time beleiving that there isn't atleast on on the drive shaft and several on the front suspension. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Neither the owners manual nor the shop manual mention or show any grease fittings. So my assumption is that all bearings are sealed and do not require periodic greasing.
