I'm having some issues fitting my snow tracks on my Argo. I bought the tires and tracks from someone with the same Argo and they just don't want to fit on mine. I tried letting the air out of the tires and ratchet strapping them smaller since they still like to hold their size even with the air out. and am still coming up a couple inches short. There is no removable master link either...ANY IDEAS?!

Kent Better measure your wheelbase, there are differences in some Argos. Jeff

Are you using the smaller Goodyear Runamuk tires? I had a Bigfoot and the front and rear tires had to be empty, drive on, and then I still had about 1 1/2 inches of space. Then with a ratchet strap I could manage to close the tracks and inset the pin.
