How can Jeep Wrangler do this on ICE???
Can anyone explain how is it possible to go this narrow on ICE and still have full traction on all weather tyres?
It makes no sense but still it is possible. It is heavy ice and elevation is 15-20%
Outside temperature was almost -20C, extreme weather

Since that is a Sport, it did not come with lockers from the factory to prevent wheel spin (one tire breaking free and thus receiving all power on that axle). However, all JKs have brake locking differential (BLD). Suggest you look that up for a discussion of how that helps in situations like in the video.

Also, when all of the ESP and traction control stuff is turned off in the normal way with the button on the panel, BLD remains active.

Do you know when traction control is partial off what is switched off an what is switched off when traction control it is fully turned off (5 sec hold on a button)?

This is from a few years ago. I can't guarantee it's the way it is with the later models, or the Euro models.
