Hi,

Could any kind soul help ?

Make sure the hole diameter fits your counterweight rod.

You can get custom counterweights from tan14.com

Also ask him if he can fabricate the pier you need. It won't be cheap (fabrication uses CNC equipment, and they need to shut down their regular production for your one-off).
