No, leave it how it is. The weight on the frame is fine. When you have the car on a lift thats where they pick it up from. I wouldnt tighten that bolt untill you have the brake backing plates back on, otherwise you wont be able to get them back on. If you are going to have it torn down for a while, you are fine to leave the torsion bars loose untill you are ready to put it all back together.

ok we are now good! thanks for all the help guys i am still alive!
so i am guessing now that i have a jackstand safely under the axle i should tighten the adjusting bolt back up to relieve some of the pressure off the frame?
You really need to get a service manual , you have your terms all screwed up and it sounds like you are learning this as you go , you are going to damage or bend something , or worse hurt yourself .

Often times a man's life in these parts depends upon a mere scrap of information. In the future, you can get the scraps of information you need to save your life from the internet or the local library. The trick is to get them BEFORE you start a project.
1970 Plymouth 'Cuda #'s 440-6(block in storage)currently 493" 6 pack, Shaker, 5 speed Passon, 4.10's 1968 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible 408 Magnum EFI with 4 speed automatic overdrive, 3800 stall lock-up converter and 4.30's (closest thing to an automatic 5 speed going)

Please click this link and download the service manual. It's for a Plymouth but it'll work for your Dodge. http://www.mymopar.com/index.php?pid=109
