NEW???? It's BETTER than new!!!
Shouldn't need to trim much for 285/75.
I had a lot more rubbing. It looked like just a small amount, but every time I cut that "one little spot" up front or massaged the mud flap area it then rubbed the area next to it. Looked fine on the ground but as soon as the body rolled around at all while taking turns it was rubbing like a couple teenagers.
I had 3 fingers wide clearance between the tire and the mud flap area, but when I turn the wheel about 1/3 to the right it gets much closer just on the ground, and was rubbing when actually turning (and leaning the body) until I mangled the mud flap mount. I'm +25 offset so a little larger arc than +50 RWs but I suggest you whip it around some hard turns at speed to really see where it will make contact.

I used @NLScooby writeup and video as reference to replace tranny fluid. I used 16qts of Toyota atf WS. New pan gasket, new ATF filter, clean pan with brake cleaner and magnets as well. I disconnected tranny cooler marked in pink, which is top hose next to passenger side near radiator and attached a hose to gallon milk container to collect dirty fluid. 3 qts at time and stop motor immediately after air shows up drain hose. Refill 3qts and drain 3 qts dirty fluid. Followed fsm instructions by jumping pin 4 and 13 at obd port to initialize temp detection to correct fluid level and open over flow plug to drain excess. Since my rig is lifted in front, I end up adding half quart after that so it is back to factory spec level. Shifts are smooth and noticed slight increase in mileage.
Also, added Spidertrax spacers on rear wheels.

Do you have these part numbers by chance? I might as well flush mine too...
Any noticeable sound difference?
