...............I hope Muadib doesn't read this but I'd try an impact wrench. If the crankshaft still 'rings' afterwards, reinstall the new gland nut with a torque wrench but you'd still have figure out how to lock the crank from turning at that point...........maybe with a socket & breaker bar on the pulley bolt.
