I can't imagine that the tailgate is too small. You might have fabricated the rear cross member too wide.
Frank I measured the front as I was getting it squared up. if I remember correctly it was around 50" of so. The rear sill is from a 1/2 ton that I just had to fab some different mounts. The bedsides do appear to be leaning in the photos because I had loosened the bolts on the sill.
