ABSTRACT:
An adjustable mounting for an article restraining cross bar of an automobile luggage rack is provided to interconnect the cross bar to a pair of stanchion members mounted for longitudinal movement along a pair of parallel side rails so that one stanchion may be longitudinally adjusted relative to the other stanchion. A pivot plug is provided which is secured to each end of the cross bar and includes an extending tongue portion having a slot therein. The stanchions each contain a socket adapted to receive the tongue portion of the pivot plug and a fastening screw extends through the socket and tongue slot to secure the plug within the socket while permitting limited inward and outward movement of the tongue within the socket and limited pivotal movement of the plug around the fastening screw disposed in the slot.
