I ended up with alot of mud on the driveway as well, but I simply used a water hose and laid down on the driveway and washed the still wet mud out. The mud was kinda soupy so it all came off easily enough but I hated to use my pressure washer because it has a tendancy to drive the mud up further into the chassis instead of washing it off.
After the water hose was used I quickly drove to one of those touchless car wash places that are at fuel stations everywhere. The one I go to has the underbody was as you drive in and the combination seemed to do the trick.
I had to use the winch with a double pulley snatch block on a big oak tree, another single block on one tow hook and the end of the cable on the other tow hook. The cable went from winch, to tree, back to the block attached to the tow hook, back to the tree and then the cable was hooked to the other tow hook. We also jerked it a few times with a strap attached to my tractor. I had 2 20 ton clevices attached to each of the tow hooks. My dad used to go to heavy equipment auctions and had bought alot of heavy duty stuff for our tractors and dozer. That's where I got the double pulley block and the clevices. I keep one clevice hooked to one of the tow hooks because it's easier to hook to than trying to work with just the tow hook itself.
