I know the OP was looking for parts for the FMTV but a truck that looks close and is very cheap is available on the market. I am referring to the British Bedford MJ. I have one and its quite a truck, with a Perkins Turbo Diesel and very good off road ability. It is a little heavy and does sink...
I have a 40 ft Motor Home and am covered for boosts tows and tire changes for about $100 a yr. They will tow you to the closest place that can service your unit. I have not used it that much but I do know some other RV owners that have been towed a long distance. I doubt that they would cover...
