What is the best way to get that thick mud off the bottom of your rig?!?!

My neighbors were looking at me funny, as a lay in the drive way on a creeper spraying the hose under my X.

I tryed using a pressure washer but couldn't get it all off.

:(

(the good part was i had a blast doing it! i had my own crowd watching me charge the mud!)

If you can get it off with a pressure washer just leave it there. I usually just hit it with the water hose untill it all washes out, may take a while.

Thanks.

I also just thought of something else, when it rains, just charge some puddles! That will take it off. All the spray from your tires.

I found that SimpleGreen works well at removing mud from the wheel wells... I never tried it way underneath though.

Just roll it over on its side and hit it that way.

put one of those oscilating sprinklers under it and leave it in your yard, it will all come off.

i usily dont care that its unerder there, but i do spray it off the transmission, and axles and all the crap that it doesnt need to be on, but i jsut use the jet setting on the water hose.

BUT...

my dad told me that a way soem people do it is use one of the lawn waterign things the spray the water up, either in a circle, or back and forth, and jsut turn it on and let it run for a while, but i havent triued this out yet

PEACE

If it doesn't come off with the pressure washer when it's wet then just start scooping it off with your hands! After mudding one time I took literally a hundred pounds or so of mud off the truck.

It will be much easier to get off if you let it dry though.
