I don't know if you took your rear suspension apart lately but when the arms are bolted they are pretty stiff to move ( because of the rubber bushings ) so this is why I thought by tighting them with the weight of the car they will be in neutral position ( no tension or stress ) applied to them this may extend their life and the rubber will not be stretch all the time when not needed... <_<

to avoid this, lube the hell out of the metal sleave inside the bushing so that is doesnt seize up. this should releive some of the stress that you are worried about.
