The mining industry uses these washer stacks to secure replaceable wear
plates in Jaw crushers.  Twist the nut down until the compressed washers
all fit into a “cup” and viola bolt is torqued and the bolt has additional
springiness beyond just the steel of the bolt

I would agree with Todd replacement is best as these are technically “wear
parts”. But sounds like the ability to do this job was redesigned to be
costly and less repairable.

Can you add an extension the rod and add an additional stack of washers in
a more convenient location?   Got a cross section of the area?
