Default Cleaning undercarriage?

Hey,
How do you guys clean under the fender wells and such or do you just not worry about it?
My car is stock suspension but it seems like its tight to get your hands in there to clean it.
Just wondering what you all do?

to do it right, yes. taking the wheels of is essential i beleive because it will allow further flexability in getting EVERYTHING clean.

btw: i put my car on a lift, sprayed on Griots degreaser, let it for about an hour, washed it off, looks very good. keeps the bottom of the car looking like the color it ought to be (the color of your car-mine is white, therefore my undercarriage is white as well).

I wish I had a lift to do something like that.
Id like to clean it that way at least a couple times in a year.

i recently cleaned the undercarriage again, this time instead of lets the griots degreaser sit for about an hour, i did that, but then scrubbed it lightly with the griots brushed used on the exterior of the car. needless to say i wont be using the brush again to wash the car, i bought a new brush for that to keep the exterior perfect.
