This is why most, including the factory, run the exhaust under the axle.

Subject: Exhaust hitting
I have a custom exhaust going over the rear axle on my MGB GT V8 but
the rear axle hits it over badish bumps. Just enough to be
noisy. Getting new exhaust piece will be expensive so I wondered if
I can raise the body up a bit - half inch would do it. I see bits
in Moss catalog to lower car by an inch - so how do you raise it a
half inch? I have looked at how she sits and it is a bit low at the
back (tired springs?) so could easily stand a bit more up.
Thanks in advance for any responses
Regards
