Usually the steering squeak is the lower ball joint or tie rod. If it also has a squeak when the suspension is bounced it may also be the strut mount up top. If they damaged the rubber grease bag when removing the joints, this could be a cause. But assuming they did not, I would look at the strut mount. Get some spray lube, I used Remington gun oil spray because it is thin and I had the bottle handy. Sprayed the control arm bushings, strut bushings, tie rod ends, ball joints and sway bar link. My steering squeak went away.
