You'll prob need to slice through the support cross member as well. I looked @ shortening the floor or notching the gate. The lower portion of the gate was much easier in my opinion. Mine 'worked' fine too & wasn't noticeable w/the gate down.

I say 'worked' because when I got it Line-X'd, he was a little overzealous on the application of material applied when spraying the vertical portion of the bed floor & the lower portion of the gate (from the handle relocator down). I asked him to do just a single pass for each of those areas & said I would just paint/blend it the rest of the way. Instead, he laid down the same amount of material as the floor/sides which caused interference once closed (no interference before that).

No biggie to me. I'll just recess the gate a little more & have him re-spray that section.
