    Hello
    I recently had my Alucab contour canopy installed on my 6’ bed Tacoma
    My Mini Ikamper 3.0 sits on top of the cab just like pictures shown.
    Is there any other ways, Ikamper clamp system, 3rd party clamps which will clear the Alucab with less air gap than my current set up? I like to get the Ikamper mini to be as low profile as possible to reduce the wind noise. At the current set up, the Ikamper clamps is 1” away from the roof of the canopy. The load bar is at the medium height. many suggestion is appreciated much.
    thank you.

    does the ikamper overhang that much on both sides? i wanted to move to an ikamper from my tepui, but the tepui fits nice up there.

    but back to your question.

    you would need lower mounting feet, yours look like the standard ones. different cross bars would make it easier, but something like these would let you get the cross bars lower

    a few different companies make something like those, but thats the first i came across.
