The M332 is the postwar replacement for the WWII M10 munitions trailer.
It would be a poor choice for an FJ40 owner. It weighs 2750 lbs empty.
It was generally pulled by 2-1/2 ton 6x6 trucks as a minimum, as well as armored personel carriers, self-propelled guns and sometimes tanks.
It's rated as a 1-1/2 ton trailer. It's only slightly more compact than an M104 or M105 cargo trailer, and just about as unwieldy for even full size pickups to handle.
The WWII era M10 is a bit more compact, but still weighs 2090 lbs empty.
Contrast this to the WWII Jeep, M100 and M416 trailers that weigh between 550 and 570 lbs. And the M101 US 3/4 ton trailer that weighs 1340 lbs empty. The latter is getting on the hefty side for an FJ40.

Thanks, there is a M332 near me F/S cheap and I thought maybe......
i just picked one up from a govt sale in PA. paid 111.07 for it. towed it back to my house with my 02 ZR2 blaZR with ZERO probs. right now, im in the process of removing all of the extra dead weight and then going to sandblast and repaint. ive already towed it around with my LC and also had ZERO probs.

I'd love to see pics of it after you have cut away the dead weight.
