Are you talking about getting rid of rust or just dirt/mud?
If just dirt/mud I'd say buy a gallon of Meguiar's APC+, dilute it 2:1, and go to freaking town. Spray everything down several times. Just soak the crap out of it all. Then take a hose/pressure washer and spray it all off. It's some powerful stuff. If it's not strong enough take a stiff-bristle brush and scrub it while it soaks.

ok ill have to check that out.
theres not much rust, all the caked up mud provides alot of protection against rust.
Mud, dirt, power streering fluid, oil, diff fluid, brake fluid, some blood. thats mostly the gist of it.

APC+ is your best friend, then.

It's expensive but it's in a gallon and can dilute to many different ratios. I use 10:1 on interior stuff and 5:1 on most exterior stuff (tires, exhaust tips, etc).
For heavy duty stuff you can try 2:1 or 3:1. So essentially if you use all of that for your underbody you have 2-3 gallons of the stuff. I doubt you'll use all of it, though, so you will have some leftover.
