You really don't want to dispense with lock washers on a vehicle that 
jolts 
and vibrates.  You'll be back in the same place before long.

Smart EV folks use lock washers on bolted connections.  I'll use split 
washers in a pinch, but my preference is for either Bellville (dished) 
washers or wave washers.  I keep a supply of them on hand in the sizes I'm 
most likely to need.
