ABSTRACT:
A snowmobile transporting device for mounting in a pick-up truck has a lower support frame adapted to be mounted in the load compartment of a pick-up truck and an upper support frame mounted on the lower support frame and adapted for longitudinal backward and forward movement on the lower frame. A snowmobile carrying platform is pivotally mounted on the upper support frame and this pivotal mounting includes a central pivot connecting the platform to the upper support frame, a circular track formed of a square tubular member fixed to the bottom of the platform and a plurality of lower rollers mounted on the upper support frame and engaging the circular track. A detachable ramp is provided for connecting to either a front end or a rear end of the platform, whereby the upper support frame and platform can be moved forward and backward while mounted in a truck and the platform can also be rotated relative to the upper support frame such that a snowmobile can be both loaded and unloaded by way of the ramp without moving in reverse.
