I'm at a loss on this one. The only reason I can fathom that my long term comparison differs from your test is that my last JK was very heavy and possibly made a difference in traction more noticeable between my MTs and my DuraTracs.
Also, I have to wonder if the fact that all 3 of the JKs tested were improperly geared is requiring more pressure on the accelerator to get moving and thus contributing to all the tires breaking loose equally.

I would bet weight is a huge factor. I know my diesel pickup reacted differently with the mtrk's than this Jeep did no doubt. You have a great point... If a heavy jk with steel bumpers, 37" spare , armor and some junk in the trunk can squat the suspension it's surely putting down weight on the rear like sandbagging a pick-up.

Lets keep this on track guys. No sense in getting into pointless banter, doesn't take the discussion anywhere besides the circus or deletion.
I should note my JK is pretty heavy as well, front/rear full bumpers, armour, 4x 4g fuel, 37's, carrier, etc... find it sticks on the road when slippery quite a bit better but its the devil traversing muskeg. Basically like extra sand bags
