Just found this... https://www.roughcountry.com/insta-winch

It includes a "real" hawse that sticks onto your bumper via magnets and a short winch line to give the illusion your truck has a winch.

Weird. Like stuffing a cucumber in your pants.

April Fools joke or not, you know that thing would sell like hotcakes if they actually produced it.

Tells more about the people who would buy it than the company that makes it, doesn't it?

Any company that builds a long arm kit that uses the same bolt for the forward end of the rear upper and lower control arms, deserves all the grief anyone cares to give them.

I would buy one. It would go on the door or the fridge.

I'd buy one just to mess with folks. How cool would it be to have one right in front of each rear tire on the side of the tub so you can tell folks you no longer have to do side pulls with the front winch?

RC also "sells" poser stands.
