OE Rock rail clearance

I noticed that my passenger side rock rail is noticeably closer at the back end to the rocker panel compared to the driver's side on my JLU. I'm concerned that it wouldn't take much of a hit to push it into the rocker panel. I tried to loosen it up and move it away, but as soon as I tighten the pinch weld nuts (the 10mm ones), the gap shrinks down again. Any ideas for adjustment? Thought about bending it, but if me bending it is all it takes, a rock would gladly bend it back! Got the rock rails for free and they appear new, still planning on better ones sooner than later.
