So I have researched the gear I need and will order and fit soon . Has anyone fitted all the gear to convert a 2t trailer to 3.5t and how do you change with rta or whatever they are now?

If I was doning this I'd de-register the existing set up and re-register it as a new trailer, with a new VIN, at the rated tonnage you want.
To alter the existing rating would require an engineer's certificate.

Do I go to an authorized station and then rta present me with a VIN later?
