use a good six point deep socket and make sure it is the right socket, otherwise if you round the nut your are done for. The nut is big and thin so make sure you press the socket against the nut so the socket doesn't slip and round the nut.
If you haven't loosen the nut before and it is a bit rusted, you may want to use some WD-40 or Liquid Wrench.
Mark the side of the strike pin plate with some electrical tape, masking tape so you know the original position and you know how much you have moved.
Don't loosen the nut too much and don't unscrew the nut all the way out, it doesn't take much to make it loose.
When you tighten the nut, the plate/nut would probably move but I think you can handle that :-)
Have fun.
