That "1980 Military maintenance trailer" looks like the equivalent of the WW2 Trailer, Workshop Servicing, 20-cwt, 2-wh to me

The "1980" maintenance trailer is more likely a 1984 model made by Manac for the MLVW series of trucks. You can tell it is a Manac by the big fred flinstone wheel on the hitch. The compressor and pump set are very similar to the WW2 lubrication and servicing trailers. Post war they were on the M101 3/4 ton trailers, and during the 1980s, they were upgraded to the diesel engined compressor and mounted on the M104Cdn3 1-1/2 ton trailers.

As Rob stated, the post-war lubrication kits were first mounted on the M101CDN ¾ Ton Trailer and this image is from the 1957 installation instructions.
