| Hitches
The last time I talked to a Reese Technical person I was told that the receivers were mild steel, just lots of mild steel. They strongly discouraged any welding to their redeivers due to their(Reese's) lack of control of the welders ability and the the typical welding shops ability to non-destructively test welds. It used to be that a Classs V hitch had to be welded to the chassis. That may have changed to.
The receivers that I have had checked for hardness (Rockwell) came back mild steel.
If your going to have any welding done on any part of a hitch, drawbar, ball mount, have it performed by a Certified Welder in a bonded and Insured welding shop.
You stand a better chance of getting a better weld.
