Wonder if they are "Gator" trailers?
Where the "G" in LGBT stands for Gator?
Maybe "T" for Transport or Trailer or what about TACTICAL?
Maybe "L" is for LIGHT?
Cage Code is 4V9Y1
OR maybe they haul their X-LT3 machines on those trailers...
Spec Sheet is attached below
Notice too that...

Okay pal... Now you are starting to make me wonder. Fort Campbell and LGBT seem to be a somewhat odd combination where they have reached Politically Correct status out there in your neighborhood.
What's goin on?
.
No ignorance... Glad you asked!
Like @sgms18 said, Lube Order. That means that we even have a book on how to properly grease every fitting on the truck. And then it goes on to include oil and other fluids - how much, where and how often.
AND, Welcome to the Outfit!
Are you a new owner...

Welcome to the Outfit!
I am up the road from you a bit - here in North Carolina. There is a group of MV'rs down in Columbia that are pretty active. If you use your WarTurtle on the road, you might talk to @SCSG-G4 to possibly get you included in the Memorial Day parade down there.
Neat...

Yeah, it would be funny until it wasn't. And chances are that wife might "turn on the grumpy" if she suddenly settled down a few inches in her seat. :cool:
Speaking of seats... NICE upgrade there!

Interestingly enough, the driver training manuals make mention of looking to the right of the travel lane if you are being blinded by an oncoming vehicle.
I didn't actually go find the words in the book.
I do remember it though.
OR it could be 50 years of experience :cool:

And some sort of testing faclity like a manufacturing company... Think Cragar or Centerline or American Racing or other folks in the business of building wheels for the general public.
Not trying to bust your bubble for the goal of bigger tires on bigger rims. Just trying to make sure that...

Just need to remember that welded by you rims come with a Lawyer attached to them. Especially without a welding certificate with your name on it. That comment is the simple version of saying you need to CYA - and welding your own rims won't be a good way to do that...

Had to snag a few pictures from this one... Two locomotives up front with Norfolk Southern 4088 leading, Union Pacific 6360 in the second position and Union Pacific 3090 bringing up the rear. Total of 74 Military rail cars loaded with all kinds of wonderful toys :cool:
UP Mile Post 536.0...

Tough part about the sliding rear windows are that they were manufactured by several different companies. Trying to find the right part has been darn near impossible on my chevy pickups... Crawling through the Web and eventually "throwing in the towel" and buying a new sliding window has...

So, Welcome to the Outfit!
Now that you are here - what's next?
Planning to learn more or maybe you already have a piece of green iron?
Happy to have you here.

I saw something recently on CBS talking about that passageway. Last year 250,000 people crossed the Darién Gap – twenty times more than just a few years ago.
Now if you could get a few thousand folks behind your trailer pushing, maybe you could make it through there. If you didn't get...
.
Wow!
With a dyno, you could take the aerodynamics out of the equation.
Then, two tanks of fuel - one with and one without the upgrade would tell a lot about the change...
I mean it wouldn't be a perfect test, but something could definitely be measured.
.
It's sad @frauhansen but @Mogman is right. You won't really know until you either have the fluid tested (like you would motor oil) or you just guess. Guessing is definitely bad for YOU and your truck. The mechanic might have just typed whatever they normally type on their invoices.
If you...

You shouldn't hesitate to get yourself a bore hone like you would use on an engine block. They come in assorted sizes. The knurled nut on top will add more spring tension. Add some grit to the hone stones if the rust is really bad. Use liquid (penetrating oil will work) to keep from...
.
Forgetting about the electronics in almost every piece of equipment in my building - we are having problems getting PAPER. There is no reason other than the EPA why there shouldn't be more paper than we would ever need. But manufacturing volume is way down.
Train Rail Volume is down by 4%...

Hi Phillip,
Welcome to the Outfit!
Post us up some pictures. You will enjoy being able to see your new-to-you truck as it grows into what you want it to be. I can guarantee you that your boys will enjoy riding in and turning wrenches with old dad...
We have a TM (Technical Manuals)...
.
Hopefully you will pass the inspection!
Yeah, those 4 quarter turn fasteners (Dzus) on the gauge plate are supposed to create the ground but after 30 or 40 years things get a little corroded. ;-)
