Use brass... less chance of galling.... although the brass and stainless are dissimilar.... the brass doesn't react to electrolysis like aluminum or lighter metals. If you use stainless....chances are they may at some time begin to gall... then you are looking at replacing the propshaft. I had brass nylok nuts on my boat... never galled... never seized... never corroded.. and they were used almost exclusively in salt water for over 10 years.
