get underneath and loosen the exhaust clamp tha hold the back box and mid section together, pust the mid section up so its a good distance away from the rear beam, then what I did was cable tie a bit of carpet around the rear beam so if it did knock ( Only 5 up over bumps ) it wasnt so annoying,

Watch the handbreak cable on the rear beam though
