Anyone tried the Toyota Tacoma rail accessories on the gladiator?

The T nuts used on the Toyota rails are not compatible with the Jeep trail rail because the shallow part that rides between the rails with the threaded hole protrudes beyond the Jeep rails preventing the accessory from being tightened against the rails. The accessory will instead tighten against the T nut which will then just wobble around inside the rails. I found this problem on a KB Voodoo bed rack and had to grind the tops of T nuts down to work properly.

You can see the problem in a video I posted here.
