M41A3 Bulldog Track Issues

[TheThing]

Heya guys, new here so Hello to everyone.

I just got my Bulldog 2 days ago and have done a few things like wear the gear box in the lazy way.
Run it with out tracks and sprockets forwards 1 hr on slow, backwards same then forwards.
Even stuck a Rhino 2150 mah 2S Lipo.
I don't have a LVC warning alarm, but thats no biggie, the battery cost me $7 so if I damage it I have no issues.
I will run it for about 1/2 an hr before charging it.
Now my issue is, my tracks seem to loose, they come off the sprocket.
I have the metal upgraded Bulldog.
Should I get track tensioners??
Or should I just remove some links?
If I remove some links how many should I, and what is the count of links people are using?

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

TIA

Oh here is a quick video I made yesterday while taking for a test run

OK what I did was remove 1 link, much tighter and IMO will stress components but hopefully the weight of the tank will load the suspension and allow for some slack.
If this is wrong please advise me otherwise, I don't wanna destroy ma new baby LOL

go look for a track tensioner which is either located at the Idelle wheel ... if dont have you have to remove one track link thats the best that you can do with out modifying the chassis
