i had the same problem with my bulldog. i removed 1 track link from each track and it worked like a charm. to get the pin out i used a thumb tack and pushed the pin out enough to grab it with a pair of pliers. if you look at the 2 sides of the track one side has the pins flush with the edge, and the other side they sit slightly in. push on the side that sits slightly in. if you need anything else just ask

im not sure if your suspension is stiff or loose. if its stiff then you should be ok. if its loose then the tight tracks might cause some of the wheels to pull upwards. if that happens you would need to stiffen up the springs. in my case i ended up adding a bunch of weight to my bulldog because the suspension barely had any flex stock.
