Cool Drive shaft rubbing.

Hey guys I'm new here to ls1 tech and I have a problem with my Spohn front drive shaft loop rubbing my drive shaft when I turn sharply at low speed. My set up is 02 ss with Spohn tq arm, tunnel mounted arm and loop for long tubes. I think it pretty dangerous so any input would be great. I already searched the Internet for weeks about this and could
Not find anything. FYI I already set my pinion angle at -1 "wheels on the ground"

I'm pretty sure the trams and body mounts are good since the car only has 15000 miles. As for the rear end shifting I don't know. Any way to check that?

Hey sorry for the delayed reply work was super busy and I had no time to look. I found out the rear end was not centered from the previous owner. I centered it and no more problems thanks guys.
