If you can get to the nut, clamp the assembly in a vise and press a cold chisel right where the thread goes into the nut. A few good whacks with the hammer should booger up the thread enough that it won't turn back out. Turn the whole thing over and give a couple whacks to the backside too.

The permetax or loctite high strength should not vibrate loose.
