Since the install of the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shock Absorbers # RM-2460-2560 uses the existing hangers on the trailer for the very front and very back a set wheelbase isn't stated with this kit. Basically you'll end up having a very close wheelbase to what you have now.
