Anyway, yes vehicle on the ground tightened to 100nm and then 15 degrees. Snug as a bug
I have an annoying knock, I know its one of these bolts. Perhaps lower or Upper control arm or ARB links. I am going to get under there an check every single one of them and tighten them buggers with my torque wrench.

Cheers for the info.
