ABSTRACT:
A box latch and prop rod is provided for a tiltable cargo box of a utility vehicle. The single rod is fixedly mounted on the vehicle, and slidably movable between a first position where it supports the box in its tilted orientation, and a second position where it locks the box to the vehicle frame for transport or operation. The rod includes a biasing mounting that urges its latching structure towards engagement with a compatible latching structure carried on the vehicle.
