Default UPC/torque/advice?

Ok, i have changed my upper control arm and followed the torque specification from the manual. The nut i'm referring to is the SELF-LOCKING NUT (10X1.25) 22 lb-ft. There is two of them in each side. They are the ones that hold the camber kit to the control arm if you got one.

Either or i left it at a spec and now when i hit a bigger bump i think that my control arm hits the upper body. It makes a nice and loud sound. Should i torque the nut to the higher spec? I had them real tight before on the aftermarket control arms but since i have put OEM control arms i wanted everything to be up to the spec.

Did anyone have similar experience and what did you do?

Maybe it's my bumpstop, it's cracked in half actually, and shock is bottoming out and it seems like the UCA is hitting the body.
