About this kit

2.5-Inch Rear Leaf Springs, fitment-checked

Rough Country 8040Kit is a pair of 2.5-inch rear leaf springs for the 1975-1980 International Scout II 4WD, covering Base, SS2, Terra, Traveler, and XLC submodels. Bushings are included, and the springs bolt into the factory locations. These are intended only for Scout II builds already running 2.5 inches of suspension lift.

These 2.5-inch rear leaf springs for the 1975-1980 International Scout II 4WD ship as a set of two and are matched to trucks already set up with 2.5 inches of suspension lift — confirm that before ordering, since the springs are not a standalone lift for a stock-height truck. Fitment covers the Base, SS2, Terra, Traveler, and XLC submodels in 4WD. Bushings come with the springs, the mounting is a bolt-on job at the stock hangers and shackles, and Rough Country lists the work at 1-2 hours. Shipping weight is 98 lb.
