no mate, just remove the wheel and take the link off with a spanner and a torque/alan key.
but if it was a knocking noise i should think your suspension ball joint is knacked, the ball joint at the botton of the strut.

Hi, i think i've got the same problem, a knocking noise when going over bumps and when the wheels are unlevel, just wondering if the new drop links sorted the problem out? if they did i'll order some, any help much appreciated thanks.
