Not all Tucker Sno-Cat® frames are alike. Depending on the model, Tucker Sno-Cat® designs and engineers 20+ different frame configurations. To simplify the matter, there are steel-welded truss frames and steel-fastened channel frames. Our truss frame was used on the original Tucker Sno-Cat® vehicles, and are still effective today.
The channel frame has primarily been used throughout the past decade, however, high horsepower, higher torque, and heavier model requirements have shifted a few models to the channel frame design. The truss frame is still very effective when cutting weight, especially focusing on over-snow transportation. This allows the machine to stay afloat and keep a light footprint.
