I just looked at nylon washers but I couldn't find one that seated with the GS, I'd love to hear the results if someone more patient than myself ordered ones that work.

Amazon has a ton if you search this- Nylon 6/6 Flat Washer, Off-White, Inch

Multiple thicknesses too. I wonder if they would be strong enough? Maybe Nylon then stainless?

Galvanic action would still occur where steel washer contacts stud shaft, even if separated by a nylon washer.

You're right - its the head of the stud that corrodes and gets skinnier - then the washer falls off.
