I installed a rugged ridge oil/trans skid and after 3 days of wheeling my front drive shaft started rubbing on the bracket that goes from the engine mount to the skid. It happens when at full compress of the front. going in a hole or going over a speed hump where the front dips down. It is a 2010 rubi 2dr and has a 2.5 BB, procomp shocks and new sway bar links. Any ideas, everything is tight and looks lined up. Have not had the aliment done yet to check it by something other then the human eye for being lined up. We have 5,000 miles on it.

Can you post some pics?

Is it anything that can be remedied with a grinder?...

Is it close enough to full stuff that extending the bump stops by an inch or so would cure it?

Without grinding, your best bet is a new front drive like previously stated. If you ever plan on getting more flex out if your front end you will need one anyway.

Grinding is way cheaper than a new drive line. You can grind a little and check it then grind some more if needed. Use a soft disc/flapper wheel and the grinded area will look smooth and pretty.
