A load carrier assembly for releasably securing a load to a crossbar of a vehicular roof rack is disclosed. The load carrier assembly may include a tightenable clamp configured to attach to an exterior of a crossbar, a rotary tightener coupled between two portions of the tightenable clamp, and an actuator coupled to the rotary tightener. The actuator can have an interference surface configured to contact a portion of a load carrier thereby obstructing rotation of the rotary tightener and preventing unauthorized removal of the load carrier from the crossbar.
