One wheel (castor) fell off. It's a a desk chair, 5 castors, but not the normal pop in/pop out castor stems. Each castor stem has a short threaded stem with what appear to be threads inside the hole where it goes. looks like the threads are a bit stripped. I can't figure out how to solve this, especially because I can't get the stem out of the wheel. Anybody know anything about Caligaris chairs?.

Castor and camber are two separate adjustments.
Castor is how far the suspension strut leans forward or backwards and adjustment is very limited.
Camber is the tilt of the wheels top to bottom measured across the car. How far apart are the wheels at the top compared to the distance at the bottom. Adjustment depends on the suspension fitted. Like castor, camber adjustment can be limited. So work out which one it is you to adjust.
contact the manufacturer of the jack for a spare castor
find a wheel and castor shop in your area as they will probably have a replacement unit or if you have to replace both castors
call the manufacturer. check out you large local hardware shop for their range of castor wheels . try a shop that specialises in wheels and castors or check out a furniture hard ware shop. some office furniture supply shops have castors that may do the job. Remember in trying to get 1 it may be easier to get 4 new ones of a different style that will fit the hole.
depending on where you live you can try Tractor Supply, Northern Tool, Agri-Supply, Big Blue, Motion Industries, Applied Industrial Technologies, W.W. Grainger, MSC Supply, McMaster-Carr.
