    Stock TRD OR recovery point works, but isn't very "accepting" for a shackle or the open end of a snatch strap. Conventional shackle is the more sure way. Until I get a winch bumper later on this summer, I wanted a way to attach a shackle. Appreciate the help!

    I had a decent amount of dirt build up behind the flaps, so I really don't think there will be much difference without them, other than a bit more on the body.

    Spray it down with Mr Clean. Let soak for a few, then power wash. Did a good job on mine.

    Odd, not even when the key is turned to "on" before ignition?

    Interesting... buy the gallon size of concentrate, my buddy uses it to clean his food truck kitchen and I've used it w great success. You will have to scrub, not hard but just enough to dislodge the grime

    Simple Green is great when used at the correct concentration/dilution.

    Fair enough, I haven't cleaned mine in the 2 years I've had it but I don't travel dirt roads very often.
