  • Patent number: 4313516
    Abstract: A snow assembly for conversion, for snow operation, of a normally road operable vehicle includes ski and track assemblies which are adapted to be mounted on the vehicle in place of the tires normally mounted thereon for road operation. The ski assembly includes a raise bracket which is mounted to a brake housing of the vehicle by the bolts which normally mount the tire to the brake housing and a ski which is mounted at the bottom of the raise bracket such that the ski is rotatable relative to the raise bracket to vary the angle between them. The raise bracket is preferably pivotally linked to the vehicle to stabilize the bracket in the direction of movement of the vehicle. Pneumatic tires are also preferably positioned on the ski assembly to enable operation of the vehicle both in snow and on open road when the snow assembly is installed on the vehicle.
