The Kuat NV 2.0 Base bike rack # BA22B measures 11-7/8 inches tall from the center of the hitch receiver opening to the top of the rack closest to the vehicle when the arms are folded down. Lower your tailgate and measure from the center of the hitch opening to the bottom of the tailgate. If that measurement is more than 11-7/8 inches then you can lower the tailgate on your 2018 Ford F-150.
I will include a picture to this page showing many of the key measurements of the bike rack.
