International Harvester Scout II

1971–1980 · 2 sourced fitment findings. Review the linked reports for each setup.

33x10.50R15 · 4″+ lift

Needs supporting mods

33s on a Scout II take a 4" suspension lift or a 3" body lift with trimming — the long-standing Binder guideline.

Heads up: 4" suspension lift (or 3" body lift plus fender trimming); bump-stop spacers, extended brake lines and a drop pitman arm are part of the package — some combos still touch at full articulation

35x12.50R15 · 4″+ lift

Needs supporting mods

35s on a Scout II push beyond the standard 4" lift — cut fenders and bump-stop work territory.

Heads up: Past the 4"-lift envelope: fender surgery, bump-stop extension and driveline attention — documented builds exist but none of them are bolt-ons
