An hour to pull out 3 bolts just to install the small brace of the ORD brace kit. I hate mud.

Never liked mud
Deep water I love
So if we are talking about letting go off the things we love... I hate doing wheel bearings. So I no longer search out water
Hahaha

I was thinking about this the other day, if you put some air pressure in the hub that it keep out the water, wy2w
My dad had rubber boots on his boat trailer hubs. A hand held squeeze bulb would pump them up before backing it into the water. Never had bearing issues.
There's a website for you (but you need to become a Toyota guy): https://www.ih8mud.com/
Ever try putting a sprinkler under the truck for a few hours to clean the mud off?
If you think the mud is bad, try the rust belt.

Used to own a Toyota. Those guys are weird.
My blazer was previously a mud truck. After years of that, it's rusted to shit in a lot of places.

Isn't that why they have DIY car washes? Leave the mud there after a run so it doesn't cover your driveway? Leaving mud to dry on a truck is like wanting to live in the rust belt. Just asking for the rot! Do yourself a favor, clean it off before you go home to do maintenance.
I had a 77 K2500 that was "mudded" before I got it--36" Dick Cepek tires,454/TH350,and it was plastered with mud everywhere..
I tried every detergent known to mankind,pressure washers,car washes,nothing would get the mud off that dried on the undersides & firewall,and it remained firmly intact until I junked it about 13 years later...it was like hardened concrete!..
Some "mud" I got on it at the town landfill was very corrosive,it rotted thru the inner fenders in no time and was just as tough as concrete once it dried--had to bash it with a hammer to get most of it off..

Everything down here is clay and that stuff is nothing but concrete when it dries. You've gotta chisel it out.
You should be glad you're not chipping off Mississippi mud.
Y'all got that same clay we've got in Houston. Stuff is nothing but concrete.
Yeah probably so. The soil in the Mississippi Delta is rock hard when it's dry, the best grease ever when it's wet.
