Try Wiggington surplus in Piedmont S.C. 864-859-2692. They are good people and I think they have a few new ones left.

RE: pics Just tell her what I tell mine, "that thing has always been there, have you never noticed before?", it works the majority of the time and if it doesn't then do what John says and buy her something, that always works.

RE: pics Wade, I agree with RF202, if you can get it then why not? I will tell you this, once you get one you will never be without one again, they are amazing and will save you many hours of back breaking work and your version is even more versatile than mine. I would hate for you to miss...

I have an M62

Great pics and video, massive project, good luck. Post some pics as the progress continues.

RE: motor mounts There are several reason's. The fuel cost here are not that different, maintenance on any diesel is not as bad a gasser, my M54 with a multifuel runs as good or better than my M35, getting up to speed is not a problem either, they are not dragsters but do ok. So far I am very...

Thanks for the reply guys. I would like to have a set so I sent you a PM John, maybe we can work out a deal. Thanks, Jimmy

RE: motor mounts Wade, I would have thought the remote clutch would operate the same on yours as mine since it also controls the crane as well as the drag winch (that yours doesn't have), But either way if you run across it you will know what it is. The rear mounts are the same, the front...

Anybody know where to get a set at a reasonable price??

Wade, Your A frame idea will work but make sure to build it heavy enough because remember the gasser weighs over 1900 lbs. I used the M62 to take apart the salvage truck then parked it beside the other and got a wrecker friend of mine to sit everything off and swap it back in place. I had to...

RE: Re: RE: gas vs diesel Wade, The clutch shaft is the rod that the clutch lever attaches to, the throw out bearing rides on and on the wrecker models goes all the way through the bell housing and on the opposite side attaches to the air solenoid, it is very easy to swap since all the...

It is just a cover that bolts to it, I looked at mine to make sure. Sorry, I don't have an extra one.

Normally what hurts the most is the amount of time the vehicle sits after you get it out of the water before you start the repairs, especially in salt water. That is when it starts to eat everything up. If you went deep enough to hydrolock the engine then you can bet the water got to every...

RE: gas vs diesel Wade, I put the engine and trans assy from the multifuel in as one unit but the numbers on both transmissions were the same. You will have to use the clutch shaft out of the wrecker to make the air solenoid work for the crane. I swapped out the fuel tank with sender and pump...

RE: gas vs diesel Wade, I will try to send some pictures tonight, I found that the system here at work will not allow picture uploads.

RE: gas vs diesel Wade, Sorry, me and the picture part of this web site do not get along, I will try again. You need to make sure your new engine comes with a power steering pump as they are different. I also changed the dash panel and wiring harness to a multifuel, not because I had to but...

RE: gas vs diesel I am doing the same thing to my M62 wrecker and have about a day's work to complete it. While there is nothing wrong with a gasser I just like the multifuels better. I would recomend the change, it is not that hard. Here is a picture of the progress so far.

Try this guy. He has most HMMWV parts and is pretty reasonable. Mike Niebur of Rank and File 608-838-7602. Good luck.

I live outside of Knoxville and was told by the local MVM boys that I did not need a CDL and have never had any trouble, just some odd stares and waves. I think you will like it better here than New England. Let me know if you move to town.
