Adjustable pedestal assemblies for supporting stacks of automobile frames on the deck of a flat car. Each adjustable pedestal assembly forms a support for the rear end portion of the bottom frame of a stack of frames, and includes a channel-like base extending longitudinally of the car having parallel side walls and retainer flanges extending inwardly therefrom having inwardly opening notches spaced therealong. A pedestal block is supported on the channel-like base between the flanges thereof and is retained from tilting movement relative to the base by said flanges and is locked in position by a locking ring extending about the pedestal block. The locking ring has portions registrable with the notches in the flanges and is released from the notches by upward movement of the ring along the pedestal block, to accommodate movement of the pedestal block along the base in accordance with the length of frame to be supported.
