I got to thinking, (I do this sometimes...I just can't help it..)..when I was securing the 3500kg rated steel D Shackles incorporating the trailer chains onto the Pajs' tow bar in the process of attaching the campertrailer to the Paj. (which I might add...campertrailer weights 1600kg GVM)..
I have two of the new synthetic ADR rated and approved D Shackles that are certified to 3500kg, which can fit through the attachment holes..they are lighter, less of a hassle and quieter in tow bar holes.
What if...
Question: Is it illegal to use ADR approved synthetic, rated to 3500kg D Shackles, instead of the steel rated 3500kg D shackles to attach your drawbar chains to your tow bar?
Legal arguments please...for and against...
