Axle Studsss

This is where I am at now. Removed and replaced all axle studs on right axle.
Put wheel (Cragar SS) back on and used new lug nuts and washers. Nuts are 7/16 x 20. Had read on site that nuts should be torqued to 65 ft. lbs. Started torque at 30 ft. lbs. and then went to 40 ft. lbs. then 50 ft. lbs. When I got to 50 ft. lbs. one on the lug nuts would not torque to 50 ft. lbs. Lug nut continued to turn. Removed lug nut and the washer was almost eaten through by the lug nut.
Then removed the wheel and brake drum and put paint mark on stud and axle flange. Put four washers on stud and use regular lug nut to tighten washers. Started torquing at 30 ft. lbs. and increased by 10 ft. lbs. When I got to 50 ft. lbs. I heard a click. Went to 60 ft. lbs. and heard click. Went to 65 ft. lbs. and heard click. Removed nut and washers, checked stud and no movement.
I am thinking that the washers that came with the lug nuts are too soft allowing the lug nut to eat through them and not allowing torque to be reached. So, I am planning to going to go to the nut and bolt store down the road and see if I can get some stainless-steel washers to use.
Called Cragar to get part number for new lug nuts and washers, so they are the correct ones. Tried some from online source but they were knock offs and were poorly made. The Cragar lug nuts are identical to the ones that came with the wheels.
Should I try stainless-steel washers? What are your thoughts?
