Default Rear drive shaft rub

Anyone else getting their rear shaft to rub their evap skid? I'm running a 3.25" lift with the stock evap skid. Maybe I need to shift my axle a little off center? It's not bad, just the dust boot on the slip. Just curious if it's just me with this issue.

I would grind the plate before risking an offset axle and potential wear issues...

Teraflex has a video about it. You just need to move the skid a bit. Pretty easy mod.
