Yes, it's important to clean off any excess mud from the body, undercarriage, and wheels to prevent rust and potential damage.

You should also check and clean the air filter and oil filter, as they may have been clogged by mud and debris.

A

If you went through deep mud or water, it's a good idea to have the differential and transmission fluids checked and potentially changed.

S

Don't forget to inspect the brake pads and rotors for any buildup of mud, which can cause uneven wear and affect braking performance.

Finally, after the mud has been cleaned off, take your Toyota Hilux for a thorough wash and wax to protect the paint and body.
