Here's the boneheaded story
Few months ago, as we unloaded my YJ, my gf closed the tailgate...well not completely. I crossed the street from my house and headed up a steep hill and it swung open. Damage wasn't too bad. I could close it but had to force it a little by lifting.
Fast forward to a couple weeks ago and I re-enacted the situation. This time I was driving out of my driveway and the damage is worse.
Now I lift the spare and then have to push pretty hard to get it shut. I locked it and haven't bothered opening it since.
Now I want to get it fixed, but I don't know where to go. I was hoping somebody on here could point me in a good direction for help (or make some money and help me out)
It seems like it should be a pretty easy fix for somebody with the right tools and/or skill set that I don't have.
tl;dr My tailgate needs realignment, where can I go for help?
