Wagon tailgate needs adjustment 200 1983

Now that my wagon is running flawlessly with its new distributor impulse sensor, I can now move on to other areas of concern. I appreciate all the advice I got from you guys while tracking down that problem.

Has anyone dealt with this before? My tailgate hangs down a shade below the roofline. The only problem with that is that the hinge end attached to the gate comes in contact with the roof on one side. This contact has been enough that a small area of rust has begun to form. Obviously, I want to deal with this before it gets worse. I'll have to remove the tailgate to get at the rusted area. Any ideas on how best to raise or shim the gate when I put it back on?
