Loosen the bolts on the exhaust near the cat, adjust it (preferably with someone helping you to pull it away from the driveshaft) and re-tighten the bolts. A lot of the people that have had problems with this have done the same with excellent results. There should be no need to cut or modify it to make it fit. Good luck.

Post pics. I don't see how your exhaust is hitting the driveshaft. Mine has a lot of clearance.

Removed mine at an exhaust shop. Sounds way deeper too.

Louder, deeper. Funny thing is, i never had a problem with it hitting before it was removed. I just dont care for resonators.
