The fact that Chris's nut rotates but does not actually come off does not bode well, if it was the threads in the nut that were gone the nut would come off easily, because the orifice in the nut would be larger. It points to the threads on the shaft being stripped :'( I really hope for his sake that is not the case as I understand it is a complete strip down to replace the shaft.
Although one member in here tack welded the nut on his shagged shaft and has ridden the bike for a number of years like that. (Not ideal though, but a solution as a cheap but practicle workaround)
Good luck Chris keep up posted as to how it pans out :thumbup
