It would appear the Canadian trailer had a hub for the spare as well. However, this one is long gone. There is a deck built above the original, so there are likely some surprises underneath. Looks like the hand winch is gone completely, however I did notice at least one of the air diaphragm/master cylinder combinations.

Brakes appear to be the typical Ford CMP hydraulic. I already have one of the four wheel GS trailers (no box on it) so there may be some interchange in there. I had a spare trailer axle a couple years ago, but I unfortunately parted it out. There are still plenty more in this neck of the woods.

Default Trailer under restoration in Norway

It's great to see others working on these trailers, pictures and information posted as I just started restoring one myself. Does anyone have detailed pictures of the ramps and support feet? And a PDF version of the technical manual/parts list they could share?

Mine is not too bad, but I'm missing ramps, support feet, lights, cranks, hub for spare wheel, spare wheel, crank for winch and the wheel for the brakes. One torsion bar seems to be broken, and the top frame needs some rust repairs and straightening. The inner edges of the bed is cut off to enable narrower vehicles so that need to be fixed as well, and of course the wooden floor is gone. All in all not a bad project, and I've already found two new tires for it.

All possible help is highly appreciated, I got very little knowledge and information about these trailers apart from what I've read here in this forum. Thanks in advance!
