Front wishbone - Nylon nut tightening

Hello all,
I have replaced yesterday the front wishbones on my 2003.
I have a question regarding the nylon nut that tightens the wishbone to the wheel hub: does it have to be tightened all the way down or I have to (can) let some play in it?
I stripped the passenger side star-shape bolt and thus still have 1/8 to go all the way down. I tried to reverse operation but the nut won't move neither way.
Can I drive like this? Or should I fix this ASAP?

Thanks!
