I had this problem when I had mine. I loosened the bracket and twisted the back box as much as I could and tightened it back up. Was a lot better but still banged with people in the car!!

i cut up an old exhaust rubber and cable tied it to the axle, so even if it does still hit the axle, i can't hear it !!

have a look at the exhaust clamp if the part where you tighten it faces up towards the underbody of the car loosen it turn it round so the curver faces the underbody and the bit you tighten is facing the road and it wont do it
thats if it faces that way as it will stop it as mine did this as dropped it 60 all round
