Abstract
A locking mechanism configured to selectively secure a vehicle slider frame assembly to a vehicle frame assembly includes a locking member configured to move between a locked position and an unlocked position, an actuator shaft operably coupled with the locking member such that turning the actuator shaft along a longitudinal axis of the actuator shaft moves the locking member between the locked and unlocked positions, the actuator shaft including a first portion and a second portion that telescopingly engage one another and are releasably secured to one another, and a spring member positioned over the actuator shaft and configured to bias the at least one locking member toward the locked position.
