they are a very tight fit you just need to slacken off the exhaust/turbo bolts and the front exhaust clamp and tweek it all to clear

I had this too a short while back and it only stopped after the turbo bolts were mega tighted as they kept working slightly loose.
Has been fine since...

Poly exhuast hanger busges help too.
