Loctiting Cylinder Studs

Am I the only one that thinks it's a bad idea to loctite the cylinder studs without tension?

It seems to me they should be at least slightly loaded to force the threads into their final engagement position prior to letting the loctite cure.

I was planning to slide a pipe over the studs and pre-load with a nut overnight while the loctite cures. Am I going overboard?
