The entire height of the tie plate and shock extension plate for the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Shock Absorbers # RM-2460 measures 8-3/4" so if you take away about 1/2" for the thickness of the plate you are left with 8-1/4". If you measure down 8-1/4" from where your spring seat sits on top of your axle and your wheel extends past that 8-1/4" mark then you are good to go!
