Ok, doing passenger driveshaft. there were two hub nuts here. First was easy, second was NOT tight. Problem is it's not coming off and is just spinning as I turn it. It's a Nyloc nut.
Any methods to remove requiring minimal cleverness and time? I need car!

The main nut that secures the driveshaft to the stub axle.

If the nut turns with the wheels on the floor it means you have no splines left in the hub. :P

No.
The wheels are not turning. The shaft is not turning. It is locked in place.
The nut is spinning anti-clockwise, as if threaded.
I am replacing the driveshaft and CV etc. I need to get it done today. Obviously, with it spinning in place I cant take it off and re-use the stub axle.
