ABSTRACT:
A tunnel body for a snowmobile, with a cooperating seat cushion, which provides greater space within the tunnel body to accommodate extended travel of the rear suspension, including the rear idler wheels and track, when the rear suspension is subjected to a large rise or bump. This is accomplished without raising the height of the snowmobile rider, thus improving handling.
