In general the 2 wheel trailers with 16 CMP rims were rated 15 cwt and those with 20" commercial patter as 20 cwt.
When you get around to the restoration, the parking brake handles are Ford parts, either the standard (near straight with push button on the end) for CMP trucks or the handle (looks like the civilian, under dash with squeeze release) used for the winch brake on FGT (including the mounting bracket originally used to attach to transmission or floor respectively). The straight handle sticks up as shown in the 15cwt illustration in the vehicle data book while the FGT style projects sideways below the right side of the tongue. Do you have access to the parts list/maintenance manual to see which parts are common to other uses in the period?
