I too suspect a thicker washer is the solution. Counterintuitively, sometimes when mechanical things slip, the solution is to apply a thin layer of oil or grease to every metal-to- metal interface including both sides of all washers and to all threads. This enables you to tighten them more.
It would be tempting to put a wrench on the D-ring, but I wouldn’t do that without a trained mechanic present, as it would be easy to bend or break the ring.
