This turn assist and turn lockup is something I’m not familiar with can anyone explain?
so, the goal is that on tight trails to make a sharp 90, especially in a truck larger than a CJ-5, that you lock up the inside rear tire and only apply power to the other three, this lets you make the turn rotating on that tire, or near enough, rather than a full turn radius turn. lets larger stuff go onto tighter trails.

for an older truck, like mine, you install two parking brakes, one for each rear wheel to lock only one up as needed, and twin stick the t-case, bascially turn your truck into FWD with both rear wheels in neutral.

I was just about to reply maybe the new Bronco will have R/L rear brakes.
A manual transmission with 4 pedals! Sign me up!

I don't think it'll have that. someone pointed out one of the dash buttons, so it will likely do it automatically when you have the system button 'on' and you turn the wheel to full lock, left or right.

At about 32 seconds in on the long video can anyone hear what engine that is by the exhaust note? I know it’s a stretch

That doesn't sound like a turbo 6.... more 4-banger

Sounds like the 2.7 to me. I've listened to that clip probably 30 times with headphones. I'm pretty sure that's not the 2.3.

it makes sense though with that button we couldn't ascertain the pupose of is to allow this, or to do it automagically. my current theory is that with that system turned on, it'll lock the inside rear tire when you turn the wheel full lock.

Maybe.... Just maybe your Wrangler knows you're fantasizing about Bronco's all day and it's just not liking you right now... Not the handbrake turning... Just a theory of course. ?

You cud also do this with twin park brakes and just leave the locker open ...?
