Clearance issues with Perrin Tower Bar

So.. I got the Crawford Power Blocks installed recently. Now with my perrin front tower bar there is literally no clearance with it.

Any suggestions to increase the clearance?

Temporary solution was to wrap the tower bar with a rubber hose and zip tie. This eliminated the noise, but looking for a more long term solution.

You can either make a spacer to raise the brace.

Remove the brace.

Remove the CPB's.
