as a flatbedder for over 18 years i can guarrenty that the DOT do look at chains. a grade 70 is marked, an you must run a equal hook an binder. if there is ANY tress marks on the chains or hooks the working load limit of that one is 0. the workin load limit of the total of the chains must be equal to 1/2 of the weight of the article that it is holding.
if you dont have enough chain or hooks or binder, an they get ya, you will wish you had. you will be fined, shutdown, an made to go get the proper equipment. that is if they are being jerks, which most of the time if they stop ya they will be.
DO NOT MESS AROUND WITH JUNK CHAINS. i wouldnt want to be around ya if you have to make a quik stop, if you have junk chains.
