Nothing you can do but get under there and try to adjust everything to get some more clearance.

Loosen every thing and then adjust adjust the pipes for clearance. You might be able to push some of the pipes closer together for some clearance.

If your catback has been welded, just take it to an exhaust shop. When we installed headers on my car, the headers and X-pipe were positioned slightly different and moved my whole catback toward the front of the car and it was banging the drivers side pipe on the axle.
