Default Front coast ds hitting oil pan

I I have fox 4-6" shocks in front. 3.5 RK setup and a 1310 coast front ds. (2door)

It seems at full flex that my ds is contacting my oil pan flange. I am finding a score mark on the ds that matches up to that point.

Does anyone else have this? Is there a way to correct this? Different ds? Some adjustment, other.

Is the axle centered? Ive heard of guys cheating the axle to the driverside to prevent contact.

Shifting the axle over, or using limit straps. Only two 'fixes' I recall seeing.
