Momentus Footers Repair Needed

I was servicing my momentus turntable. When I tried to put it back together one of the Footers was damaged. It appears that the thread is damaged so that the Footer can not be adjusted. Therefore, the table can not be leveled. Other than trying the machinist route; any suggestions or solutions. I searched the internet, there are no Footers on the market..........'...............HELP!!!!!!

Raul uses them, or used them, under the naked chassis of his SP10 Mk2 motor unit, which is not very heavy by itself. I agree; they are good feet.

I don't know where you are located, but there are machinists in the US who are empathetic with audiophiles and turntables.  That's the route I would take.  I cannot tell from your description whether the turntable or the footer actually needs the repair, but if it's only the footer, it would be easy to ship it.  I suggest Colby Lamb, in Oregon.  Details upon request or look him up on the web.

Yep, there was another version for lighter units (up to 30kg on 4 feet). This one AT636 went to another audiogon member not so long ago.

Thanks to all for your help. I found a machinist that did the repair. He advised there was a chip in the thread of the footer.
Thanks again!!!
