How can your drive shaft hit the body??? Sounds more like its hitting the exhaust. I had a similar issue and had the exhaust cut and re-welded.

The ebrake cable can be possible. But I know what your talking about, mine used to rub on the ribs in the trans tunnel. I just ground down the ribs a bit.

Yes I believe it is the ribs of the trans tunnel it's only on one spot of the driveshaft, more towards the rear. So just grind it down.? I was told that I may need to check out my pinion agle..
