Avalanche 4WD 8-cyl

Trailer hitch. Welds have cracks. Looks like the welds were never completed. First noticed flexing in the hitch and replaced it before anything happened. I'm sending links to a few pictures. Look along the welds on the round tube. The cracks appear as lines on the welds of the round tubes. Pictures of hitch....
