So what is the best way to clean the underneath of your JK.......any suggestions, I have a 2014 with 2500 miles that looks like its 80,000 mile JK after the swamps I went through......Any suggestions

Some have said a sprinkler placed under it and then shifted every 5 min gets most of it off. I think using the local high pressure wash racks works best but I bring a foam pad to lay on and get under there real well, no matter what I'm getting wet but thats the price of fun.

Guess I'm lucky... I have access to the wash bay at my work 24/7!

On the front and rear of the frame there are holes big enuff to get a hose in. Gunk colllects and will start rust. Run the water in the front and back until it is clean water running out of your frame. You d be suprised how much crap is is in there. I learned this tip from fellow jeepers and its served me well

Slick Products are the best way to go here. Mix up their Slick wash in a 1 gallon spray applicator and spray the whole Jeep down. Wait about 5 minutes or so for it to soak in and hit it with a hose. You will be impressed at how well it works... Pressure washers do the job but also blow out grease from joints, tear up seals, etc. Slick also makes a wash called "Suds" that cleans and waxes in one application with or without water (has very little "suds" though). Works killer! I have used their products for a few years now on my dirt bikes and now their automotive products as well. I have a friend who runs a pretty sick mud truck and he uses Slick after every run. Serious mud there and it comes out looking brand new. You can find some info on their website:

In the summer I back down a boat launch and sit there for 10-15 minutes. Once the DNR came by and asked what I was doing I said I just realized I forgot my boat they smiled and drove away.
