It appears that you should have a couple of alternatives. One would be to place a second nut underneath the sink to prevent the nut from backing off. I am assuming that the washer getting loose has an underlying cause of the nut under the sink backing off. The other fix may be to put some teflon tape or pipe putty on the underlying threads and then put the nut on. All of this is assuming that the nut under the sink is what is actually backing off. Everytime I am working on the sink in a contorted position (a basic requirement) DW always has a comment to the daughter about checking the nut under the sink (namely me!!) Ha Ha!! Hope this helps. I will state that my fix for the kitchen faucet was more radical. I replaced it!!!
