I have replaced front and back brakes on my 2001 pontiac aztek along with the rear drums, but I still have a squeaking noise. Also replaced the hard ware in the back. Cleaned and greased what I needed to in the front. What is my next step?

The front rotors looked fine, so I did not replace them. The calipers seemed fine also.

There's one of your problems. You can't simply slap pads on a used rotor. It needs to be resurfaced if it measures out OK or replaced if it doesn't. The pads need a fresh surface to ride on or you will get noises. The type and quality of the pad has a lot to do with it as well as the preparation.
