Since the lock washer was also discolored I dispensed with it and just

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.
