A height measuring tool may include a body member configured to releasably couple to an implant component. A slidable member having a distal end surface may be coupled to the body member. A height reference member may also be coupled to the body member. Movement of the sliding member in a distal direction in relation to the body member may cause corresponding movement of the height reference member in the distal direction when the sliding member is engaged to the height reference member and the height reference member is in an unlocked state. Generally, when an implant component is attached to the height measuring tool, a user may insert the implant component at least partially into a bone, with the slidable member and the height reference member used in conjunction to objectively mark off a height of the implant component relative to the bone.
