    Hello,

    Sorry if this has been posted, I searched for it and found a few other mods that were more complex and/or rewarding. I love customizing, but here's me when I read a complicated mod tutorial:

    ...but I think this one has good bang for the buck, and can be done in less than 5 minutes.

    Basically you just reverse the blue part of the rear legs. Remove one screw and loosen another. Swap the leg, then put it back together.

    Here it is out of the box. For those that don't know, the blue part of the leg sinks right back into the red part whenever some weight is put on.

    Spin the leg around, and remove screw 1. Loosen screw 2, but save yourself some trouble and hold the combiner spring loaded mechanism in.

    Get the blue part off, flip it, and re-assemble and it looks like this. The blue part can't go any further, no matter how much weight is on it.

    Not bad...just cover those screws maybe.

    Shuttle mode from below. Not great, but not horrible.

    From the side it's almost invisible.

    I did that exact same thing a while back, but I also cut a little bit out of the 'shin' above the blue 'ankle' to allow for more range of motion. Makes the legs position a little better.
