This thread will get you started. It is for an MEP-803A but addresses many of the questions you will encounter.....

Will this work? https://www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulics/Hydraulic-Hose-and-Hose-Assemblies/Hydraulic-Hose-Assemblies/1-4-x-18-JIC-4F-Swivel-x-JIC-4F-Swivel-SAE-100R16-Hydraulic-Hose-Assembly-5800-PSI-NRP-Jones-920-2218.axd . Description says Nitrile tube so that leaves the JIC 4F fitting...

I ended up installing these tires on my M1101, so they will fit your LTT-HC with no problem.
When I recovered my M1101 from Bragg the spindle nuts were too tight. I ended up stopping at every rest area on I-95 from Bragg to Virginia Beach to let the hubs cool down some.....because I did not have the correct sized wrench to get into the bearings on the return trip. Once home I checked...
Jack Pad. Note curvature of the top shaft. This fits under the trailer axle. The pan (against trailer frame) fits over the top of the jack. Should be described in the trailer's TM.
