Default Rearend Issue

I have a Moser 9" in the back of my TA and everything is fine with it. But when I drive the car it sounds like its bottoming out on the bottom of the car. It's not a major issue as the car drives fine. But I looked on the bottom of the car and I can see where it's hitting. Is there a way to fix this issue?

I don't think it can be completely eliminated! I ground down the top corner of the arm, and the damage was already done to the body so I painted over the gouge in the body. No more damage had been done yet! The 9inch is bigger so i'm not sure, mabey put a couple people in the back seat hit some speed bumps and let nature take it's course then paint over the damage to avoid rusting.
