Lower control arm bushing slides onto pin

Waiting on new bushing, I decided to finish the drivers side and wanted to confirm my research was correct. I reassembled everything and left the upper and lower control arm bolts a little loose. I then lifted the car by the lower control arm to load up the suspension until it was just off the jack stand and tightened the lower nut and set the front upper out as far as I could and rear in as much as I could and tightened them.

I assume this is to have the bushing rubber basically at rest when the car is sitting on the suspension and will deflect one way or another when the suspension moves to keep from overloading the rubber in the bushing?

I have an appointment to get it aligned as soon as I can get it back together, just wanted to get it close. I will be trailering it anyway as I have to get it saftied so I can get plates.

If I've missed something I'd appreciate getting the heads up. Thanks in advance and thanks for all the good advice so far.
