How adjust pickup tailgate?

Anyone know how to adjust a pickup tailgate from left to right?
Gap is about the same up and down but it's hitting the box on the right. I gotta move it about 1/4" left. Any Ideas?

Tried just pulling it over? Was the vehicle in a wreck?

Just putting on a new OEM gate.
Tried pulling it over but it's a tight fit and I can't find how to adjust

As far as I can see there is no way to adjust it.

Sure you could shim it over at the hinges but then you would need to also move the latch parts because it would not latch like it should .

Your going to need to figure out just how best to do it.

Then maybe the tail gate dimensions are off or as suggested your bed might be twisted.
