Abstract: A shackle assembly (200) comprising a shackle body (202), a shackle pin (102) and a clip member (104) is disclosed. The clip member (104) is pivotally mounted to the shackle pin (102) and is adapted to pivotally move with respect to the longitudinal axis of the shackle pin (102) between at least a first position and a second position. In the first position, the clip member (104) is adapted to engage to the shackle body (202) for allowing or at least assisting the shackle pin (102) to be secured to the shackle body (202). In the second position, the clip member (104) is adapted to be disengaged from the shackle body (202) and function as a lever for facilitating rotation of the shackle pin (102) about the longitudinal axis.
