Ideas I know of in the order I try:
- Don't use a nyloc nut the first time.  Either pull the nylon
out of the old nut or get a standard nut.  Make it snug, remove
the nut, then torque the new nyloc to spec (recommended method).
- lever/pry under the nut, like pulling a nail, to pull the joint
together
- tap it together with a hammer any time it starts to spin
