ABSTRACT:
An improved steering and suspension mechanism for a snowmobile. A tubular sleeve is fixed to the frame of the snowmobile in a generally vertical orientation, and a strut having a portion thereof held within the tubular sleeve is arranged so that it is both rotatably and axially movable. At least one steering ski is attached to the lower end of the strut and a steering arm is disposed coaxially with the strut and made to be swingable about the axis of the strut upon actuation of a steering handle. A connecting arm joins to the steering arm in a vertically movable manner and means are provided for securing the lower end of the connecting arm to the steering skis in a longitudinally slidable manner.
