instructions to assemble body and mount on chassis
Just after I mentioned flat-packing a 20-cwt trailer to Bob Carriere, Jeff Davis posted some interesting pictures on FB:
"Instructions to assemble body and mount on chassis for 20-cwt 2-wheeled trailer body only": 55857687_2229435634039545_1068287915613749248_n.jpg 55823771_2229435580706217_2480710880388448256_n.jpg 56416855_2229435540706221_2571166976156106752_n.jpg 56315707_2229435694039539_3954517792635486208_n.jpg 56320434_2229435514039557_6991058004460175360_n.jpg

trailer assembling instructions
More from Jeff: "Box opening and trailer assembling instructions".
I may have mixed up some of the pics, not sure if this one or two separate publications. 56556952_2229435710706204_7837527450694189056_n.jpg 56380219_2229435617372880_8536972980905836544_n.jpg 55932391_2229435657372876_869475747792683008_n.jpg 56697039_2229435560706219_629542867295010816_n.jpg

Jeff found the 20-cwt trailer while doing a fire inspection. Reportedly, "this trailer was in a partial crate, with a sales document from somewhere in Vancouver including the original manual. Sales paper work said 1947 or something, never been bolted together."
It looks like this was trailer serial #308 A true time capsule! 55551323_2226465594336549_6888580183561863168_n.jpg 55625727_2226983630951412_1848375184839409664_n.jpg 56178542_2226983580951417_1432941535376179200_n.jpg 55857555_2226465677669874_4188941836410159104_n.jpg 55875369_2226983564284752_4304227056511614976_n.jpg

Steel Body Manuals
There were the following SB manuals for the 15 and 20 CWT GS Trailers:
SB-4 Gas Welding Trailer - 1943 SB-4A Gas Welding Trailer - 1944 SB-5 15 and 20 CWT. General Service Trailer - 1944 SB-5A 15 and 20 CWT. General Service Trailer - 1945 There were subtle differences in the manuals although I'd have to go and fish them out to determine exactly what they were. One of the most obvious differences between 5 and 5A was the illustrations and I have attached one as an example. Fig. 1 - 15 Cwt. Two Wheel G.S. Trailer - Side View.jpg

WRT the welding trailer, which was a companion to the KL Lorry, I believe some of the kit from the truck was moved back to the trailer, which may have changed the layout of the trailer necessitating a new manual. It's been a while since I had that stuff, but I think the blacksmiths box and the welding screens may have moved.
