Has anyone else had the receiver hitch pin hole and the tow bar pin hole wallow out on them? It seems to be getting worse and not sure what can be done other then replace both.

What tow bar do you have? Is the shank hollow? My Blue Ox Avanta II has a solid shank and I have not had a wallowing issue in about 20k miles.

No problems here either.

What are the details?

Perhaps a Hitch Immobilizer would help?
