I've read about welding washers on. I currently don't have a welder and would be a novice even if I did. If I got someone else to do it, what specific washers & bolts would I need to get?

What would the dealership do to repair?

Any other fixes that don't require welding?

I don't know the answer, but here's a free bump, because it's a good question

Any permanent fix will involve welding. JKS braces seem to be the best solutions. They're not very expensive and could be welded up pretty cheap. Check Northridge.
