Default help car squeeks

i tried searching for some topics that may help and nothing came up.
i have a 96 accord and the axle boots were torn so i just got them replaced, but there's a squeeking noise and it sounds like my suspension but im unsure of what it is. could it be my axles due to the fact that the boots were once torn?

when does the squeeking occur (braking, turning, over bumps, all the time)?

obviously sounds like a suspension issue...did it happen immediatly after the boots were replaced?

if not i would say that after 11 or 12 years of use (depending on how much/hard you or previous owners drove it) the suspension components will naturally start to deteriorate, make noises, ect.

what i would do:

a) get it checked by a mechanic if you just want it to stop
b) look into replacing the parts and possibly lowering it as you would end the squeeking and give a nice look to your car.
