Try some smaller hangers. You can get all different sizes and types from demon tweeks. Probably loads of other car places too.

looks like the box is upside down to me? is the car lowered? you can get uprated hangers but i dont think they will hold it up enough. what id do is get it up on a ramp and try to turn the box round so the pipe is facing up if you can.

Pattern parts tend to not fit aswell as geuine parts.
Id suggest going you a local breakers and try fitting a genuine one as i reckon this is the problem tbh.

Does it hit on the rear beam, Looks like it needs twisting so it sits further up.

that looks just like mine does pal, except mines touching the n/s of the heat shield (after been adjusted 3 times) and the axle only has about 5mm clearance. got a solid rubber protector on the axle like but it makes a hell of a noise going round right hand corners. my main problem though it the shitty 4.1 mani is even closer to the deck
