I believe that on an NEQ6 and similar mounts, this post is removeable and can be relocated 180 degrees to the other side which would have allowed my counterweights to swing between the legs if this could have been done on my setup.

Ah, I see. Again, it's great to hear that you found a solution to this design flaw.
