Abstract

Systems and methods for securely mounting devices and/or accessories to vehicles and/or other supporting structures. The systems include a shaft having a longitudinal axis. A pair of clamp bodies cooperates with the shaft so that a distance is defined between the clamp bodies. A lever is engaged with the shaft and operable to alter the distance between the clamp bodies. A lock supported by the lever movably engages the shaft and maintains the orientation of the clamp bodies relative to one another by maintaining an orientation of the lever relative to the shaft so that the lever can only be operated when the lock is disengaged from the shaft.
