Bum,
I looked at mine today, they are attached to an A frame bracket that is welded on. The bracket also serves as the bottom bracket for the jack. The safety chains are held in place by what appears to be carriage bolt(s) with washers. I would have no issue with hardened bolts thru the Aframe with washers and lock nuts. I'm going to look at this a bit more as the bracket didn't see sufficient to hold onto the trailer if it left the hitch. Maybe more to follow.
