Abstract

In one embodiment, an interface mount for a work vehicle includes a first mounting arm and a second mounting arm. The first mounting arm includes a mounting portion disposed at a first end of the first mounting arm and configured to mount to a base bracket, and a first mating portion disposed at a second end of the first mounting arm, wherein the first mounting arm includes a bend disposed between the first end and the second end. The second mounting arm includes a second mating portion disposed at a first end of the second mounting arm, wherein the first mating portion and the second mating portion have substantially similar contours, and the first mating portion is configured to be coupled to the second mating portion via an adjustable slotted interface, and an interface mounting portion disposed at a second end of the second mounting arm and configured to receive an interface unit. The adjustable slotted interface is configured to selectively enable the first mounting arm and the second mounting arm to slide relative to one another between an expanded position and a contracted position.
