lower shock mounts need re-torquing maybe.
they have a tendency of working loose after you do them up, best to retighten them when the cars weight is on them.

Yup, these guys are right. Id almost bet money you need to re-tighten the lower shock bolts with the car weight on them. Happened to me as well

Doing them up on the ground or in the air doesn't affect them coming loose. You're meant to do it up on the ground so all the bushes are in the neutral postion. Torque them up with out load on them and they'll flog out in no time at all.
