ABSTRACT:
An automotive vehicular rack is described having an adjustable securing mechanism for securing cross slats between side rails. The securing mechanism includes a plunger which is normally urged by a coil spring to a protruding position in which it can register with a selected, corresponding aperture in a side rail. An actuator slide engages the pin defining the plunger to enable a user to slide the pin against the force of the spring as desired, for example, to disengage the cross slat from the side rail.
