I know this is a pretty common problem. I did a search and it seems that you just need to mess with the drivers side pipes and you can get it so it doesn't hit and still has enough clearance with the gas tank. I've messed with it a little but I haven't been able to fix the problem.
Heres my question. I plan to buy the MM adjustable lower control arms. It looks to me that this will lower the rear sway bar. How much will it lower it? Judging by the pictures I've seen it looks like it will lower the sway bar about an inch. If thats the case this may fix my problem. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Yes, according to MM their adjustable lower control arms will lower the sway bar about an inch.

Had same problem w/ my catback.

I turned the clamps away from the driveshaft and no more banging. You could see where the clamps were hitting the driveshaft. It was driving me CRAZY!!!!
