73-87 Dynomax 85003 headers + driveshaft interference?

I just installed these on my truck this weekend. Found the passenger side flange to lightly rub on the front driveshaft. Has anyone else seen this kind of issue when installing long tube headers on their 4x4?

i had that issue in my '84 and was able to solve it by rotating the flange. of course that was also after replacing my front drive shaft because it had too much slop in the slip joint.
