Approximately how far apart are your wheels on the frame? With a 4 wheel drive skid steer, with the wheel centers about 30ish inches apart on the axis on the long dimension, and 22ish on the width dimension, our robot turned. We too had AM Gen2 shifters in low gear. We tried both pinning it and a gradual acceleration. In both cases it turned, although not particularly well. (Gradual acceleration turned better than pinning it)
