How should I proceed here? Condition inspection on my 7A revealed cracks on the insides of both sides, just below the mount plate weld. Both cracks parallel about 1/8" below the weld. Passenger side crack migrated to the end, allowing the step to be wiggled.
A few searches on here revealed some folks welding and reinforcing the cracked area while others indicated Vans improved manufacturing of the steps so would appreciate post-use experience welding these steps versus buying new ones.
