Abstract
A support bracket for a tunnel of a snow vehicle includes a body, a first member, and a first flange. The body includes an inboard side and an outboard side. The outboard side of the body is positionable along an inboard surface of a side panel of the tunnel. A first member extends forward from the body, the first member positioned along the inboard surface of the side panel of the tunnel. The first flange extends outboard from the first member. The first flange extends outboard from the side panel to support an inboard portion of a running board. In some embodiments, the support bracket may include a second member and a second flange. The second member extends rearward from the body and is positioned along the inboard surface of the side panel adjacent to an underside of an upper panel of the tunnel. The second flange extends inboard from the second member and is positioned along the underside of the upper panel. The second flange may support one or more components on an exterior surface of the upper panel.
