My 2012 F350 LB tailgate has no more than 6" clearance when backed straight in, no angle.

My Reese Elite hitch (with Ford factory hitch prep) can be adjusted slightly forward/backward by turning the base 180 degrees. The arms on the base that the top hitch plate sits on are slightly offset to the front (or rear if turned) giving maybe 4-5" difference between one direction and the other. I have it turned to give the extra inches to the rear.
