Spray the nut with some kind of penetrating oil, and let it soak. Tap around and on the nut with a soft face mallet (wood, plastic, etc. type head), and spray it some more, and let it soak some more. Just because a fastener is torqued to a certain level doesn't mean the breakaway torque will be at or close to the same level. With corrosion or thread galling, it could be considerably higher.
