 Hi Pete. Have you considered using a *tiny *amount of Loctite 222 
(purple) low strength on a small section of the threads?

 Not on the threads, but on the nut and either the back side cable, or, 
more commonly, the remaining exposed threads or the flange or chassis. 
It doesn't take much to prevent vibration and/or thermal cycling from 
loosening the nut. A little blob is all it takes.
