ABSTRACT:
A strut-type steering ski suspension having minimal height for a given stroke. The suspension includes shock-absorber means with a movable cylinder and a fixed rod, the rod being fixed relative to the frame of the snowmobile. A ski is mounted to the lower end of the movable cylinder. A bias spring is incorporated in the suspension, which bears in compressive opposition between the lower portion of the movable cylinder and the rod or some other structure which is fixed to the frame, thereby utilizing otherwise "dead" space for the spring, and shortening the length of suspension needed for a given stroke length.
