rear shocks on my restored 1969 912 are showing interference and rubbing of the outer shock cover

Both new Koniyellow rear shocks on my restored 1969 912 are showing interference and rubbing of the outer shock cover against the shock body. I believe the rear trailing arms are correct for this year so I cannot figure out what is causing this, car has never been hit or damaged. Anyone have this experience as well?

I think that a picture is better to explain the situation.
Aluminum or steel?
