what size pipe is it?
If its a regular 2.5 inch you "should" be able to angle it more to the floorboard in order to clear the axle.

dang dude. Thats a lot of pipe. I dont think there is any way to get a 3.5 to work over the axle. 3 is even hard to do. Is it stainless or aluminized? If it is aluminized, I would just cut it before the axle and put in a new over the axle pipe.

Who did your exhaust?
They should have told you it was gonna hit to begin with.
If you take it to a shop, dont go to a chain style shop like midas. They would say something about your ORY.
