ABSTRACT:
A shipping rack with a rack latch assembly capable of holding a plurality of vehicle parts, such as door panels, in separated arrangement during shipping and which allows easy removable of the parts and is reusable. The shipping rack is also adaptable to ship parts having slight dimensional variations in height. The door panels are supported in a vertical direction by engagement of the underside of the upper overturned flange of the door panel. Dunnage bars restrain movement of the door panel in a lateral direction and a holding bar is used to secure the lower portion of the door panel against longitudinal movement. A latching assembly is provided for securing the lower horizontally extending flange against movement in an upward direction. The latching assembly includes latching elements with a pair of vertically spaced horizontally extending arms for engaging the lower flange of door panels having slightly different vertical lengths.
