Front shocks hitting frame???

When I flex out the either of the front tires the very top of the shock is catching the frame. Is anyone else having this problem? I know it can't be good for the shocks or shock mounts. I searched and haven't found anyone else with this problem. What can I do to fix this problem? New shocks? Relocation bracket?

Superlift 4" with their basic shocks
Teraflex front lowers
Teraflex front drive shaft

Here is where it is rubbing on both sides

You could eventually move your axle backward by shorten a bit the front/upper control arms, but as you don't have upper that will modify your caster as well.
