Abstract

A load support for a vehicle load bar can include a base, a first arm coupled to the base and rotatable about a pivot axis, and a second arm coupled to the base and rotatable about the pivot axis. The first arm and the second arm can be configured to selectively move relative to each other. A locking device coupled with the first arm can be configured to selectively fix a position of the first arm and the second arm relative to each other in a locked configuration. The locking device can be configured to engage a notch in the second arm to prevent movement of the first arm and the second arm relative to each other and configured to disengage from the notch to allow movement of the first arm and the second arm relative to each other and separately about the pivot axis.
