I my opinion if the bolts have been tightened and loosened that many times they are stretched and should be replaced. Get new nuts, bolts and lock washers of the proper grade (most likely grade 8 check with hitch mfg.) and tighten them to the correct torque for that grade of bolt. They should not loosen. JM2¢, Hank
