Cleaning IC fans

What’s the best way to access the IC fans to clean them off after off-roading? Mine are buzzing pretty loud, read that that’s pretty common.

For anyone looking for reference to this in the future:

I removed the whole skid plate (in future I think just removing the access panel would be enough) and got underneath, and cleaned the shit out of the fans and IC with degreaser and a garden hose, and brush. Bit of a messy job but needed to be done.

Looks like the fans will get muddy if you offroad these trucks somewhat, not a big deal to clean the IC fans though. If you’ve been offroad and your IC fans are vibrating when they switch on, it’s probably mud on them throwing them off balance.

Oh, and wear goggles. Water spraying in the face is no fun lol.
