A friend of my cousin's neighbor's third grade teacher said that if you buy a few of those mylar helium balloons and attach them to your roof rack, you can achieve approximately 2 inches of lift. That's cool because at the end of your off-roading day you simply detach and you can get back into your garage again! I understand the ones with funny sayings on them ("Lordy, lordy, look who's 40!") work best, but I haven't tried it yet. Karen |

Karen, LOL! That is an interesting Mod, but I don't think at the end of the trail your could "simply detach". They might fly up and interefer with the pilot of the Land Rover plane or end up in antartica and interfere with mirgrating or menstrating penguines. FWIW, My 2 Cents, etc. -John |

Oh my Karen, when you were saying that attaching "baloons" to your "rack" will give you "lift" and you have "40's" my mind went somewhere altogether different! |

This is the best mod I've ever done. Gives me a little lift, I'm definitely faster now, not sure about yet about water, haven't been wading...

I've got a waterproof camera box that mounts to my bumper, so I'll be able to get some good under-water-deep-puddle video shots soon, when the frigging stuff melts! Dean |

Danno, I'm not certain, but I think it makes me a molester of menstruating migrational penguins. Rans, you're giving me ideas for helium-filled undergarments....hmmmm, that would give the WonderBra a run for their money! Karen |

Michael, I've studied your mods, and I'm thinking you might be able to walk on hydro with those.... Karen |
