How to Stiffen up Box on 92 w250

Hello
Any simple ways to stiffen up the box on the truck. To close the tailgate I have to push the box in on one side. The box is in good shape and looks straight but needs to be snugged up a bit?

Thanks

I had an old Ford that I spread the bed on hauling hay. I put a square on each side and one side was square the other not so much. I put a piece of pipe in the stake pocket on the side that was warped and used a come-along and tied it to a tractor and "over" pulled it a bit then checked it. I had to do the 4/5 times to get it back square where the tailgate would close with no problems. Once done it stayed. Good luck and hope this helps ya.
