Robert,

You asked:

You're talking about the pivot pins?

No, I mean the bolts at the ends of the inner shaft of the upper and lower control arms.

While the outer pins use threaded (and lubricated) bushings, the inner pivots use rubber bushing, which do not (normally) rotate. If you tighten those bolts without sufficient load on the suspension/tires, you can end up with an undue amount of twist when the full load is applied.
