ABSTRACT:
A snowmobile carrying unit fitted to the loadbed of a pickup truck has four plungers held with pins to the downwardly directed four legs of the top portion of a two-piece bedrack which hold the bedrack fast to the sidewalls of the loadbed. An eight wheel dolly rides in channels in the two tracks of the top portion of the bedrack which is held to the bottom portion by pins placed through complementary holes. A circular track atop the dolly receives four wheels on the bottom of a flat rotatable carriage unit with bar on rod locking assembly units received by threaded holes in the floor of the carriage. The leading edge and the trailing edge of the carriage have two slits each amenable to receipt of swivel locks. The carriage can be locked in position by way of a first shaft on a push-pull locking assembly on the dolly that causes insertion of the first shaft into one of four holes within a plate which plate is affixed to the middle of the bottom of the carriage which has a center hole positionally in symmetry with a center hole in the plate with both centerholes amenable to receipt of a second shaft likewise receivable at the same time by a centerhole in the dolly about which second shaft, the carriage is pivotable. A detachable, foldable ramp facilitates snowmobile loading onto the carriage unit and removal therefrom at a port of final destination.
