Anyone else have trouble with their aftermarket tailgate not fitting?

I bought a new aftermarket tailgate, latches, basically all tailgate related items and went to install all of it and the tailgate won't shut. Basically when i close the gate, the latches won't go in far enough to "catch" the piece mounted to the bed. I loosened and adjusted everything to where it would have the best chance of catching and it's still off. I mean it looks like I could "dremel" out some of the latch metal to make it catch-is this my only option? Have others experienced this? The gate was made in Taiwan, I think most of the parts are Woodall if that means anything.
