Default T-Case Drop on Stock Xj?

Would there be any problem with this? Put on new exhaust and it's rubbing the crossmember. I don't know of any other way to keep it from hitting.

there should actually be an isolator hanger the mounts right above the cross member and on the passenger side of the t-case, get that mounted correctly or if you don't have one, get one then hand it and you'll be all set

Do you mean the exhaust hanger towards the tail end of the front pipe? Mine has one on there and it is attached the only way I see possible.

My XJ only has two pipes, the front pipe and the tail pipe. The piece that is rubbing is the front pipe and it is hiiting the crossmember for the transfercase. I'm just looking for ideas on how to fix this. The only idea I have had is to lower the crossmember about 1/4" but didn't know if it would cause any problems on a stock xj (driveline angles). I'd appreciate any advice!
