My money would be on this being the problem too.
Is the car lowered?

You'll see where the backbox meets the centre section it bends over the rear axel.
Try adjusting the backbox by twisting and pushing back and forwards until it sits with more space around the rear axel.
Also it may just be the U clamp that needs moving round away from the axel which is a 5min job.

theres plenty of space over the axle so it must be the back boxe knocking on the rear bumper i had it tightened and its still knocking but i think it tightened the centre box how can i tighten the back box so it doesnt knock?
