Do not lay one ground lug directly on top of the other. This type of connection
can become loose due to compression of the metal lugs. Sandwich the first lug
between a star washer and a nut with another star washer following. After
tightening the nut, sandwich the second lug between the first nut and a second
nut with a captive star washer.
