Weird noise and Vibration

Well I slammed my truck even lower today and now I have this horrible grinding noise and a vibration. The noise to me sounds like something is rubbing on my drive shaft but when I jacked it up and looked there weren't any new scratch or rub marks. I was thinking my solid drive line was to long seeing as nothing else was rubbing or hitting anyone have any ideas? Drop includes Monoleaf/Overload and 4 inch blocks if that helps. Here's a pic and I know some of you are lower then me...

if the angle and joints are good i would probably agree with the shaft bein jammed in the tailshaft of the tranny to far
