Yes you can take a link out to get your adjusters pushed all the way back. It's going to cause you trouble later if you decide to fix the tracks with new pins and bushings. Instead of taking out a link, you might consider turning the pins and bushings if they're not worn through and broken yet.

When fixing the track adjusters, you'll find the newer style seals that the 350Cs use work much better then the ones used in older 350s. Especially in worn adjuster-cylinders. To use the new seal you have to machine out the seal groove a bit. It was standard procedure in our Deere shop.
