Default Just installed axles, have a question...

Just had rebuilt axles installed at Pep Boys. Now, whenever i lock up the steering one direction or another, the axle area makes a squeek squeek, rhythmic noise. Anyone know what the problem could be? Is this something to worry about and should I take them back?
