Looking for a source for Case or Kohler wall,hung toilets. I believe that all models are out of production. therefore the only ones available seem to be used toilets taken from remodeling jobs. Can anyone help me? Any leads or contacts here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Some communities have laws prohibiting the sale or installation of used toilet.
Is there some reason you cannot use a new one? Having to repair some wall tile is not the end of the world,. and is not a reason which will move a city inspector!

American Standard makes the Glenwall wall hung, with a Sloan Flushmate.
Never clogs, though the pressure jet make shred the paper up, requiring a second flush if you want to see a clear bowl.
Crane makes the Rexmont model, gravity, no shredding, but will plug easier.
Eljer makes the Wallford with the PF/2 pressure assist, this one shreds too.

Dennis is this for your home or a commercial job? If it is for your home you have to buy more then a toilet, you also have to buy a carrier and a flush valve and then your wall has to be thick enough to house the carrier. And then your carrier has to be secured some way to support the weight of the toilet and anyone sitting on the toilet. But anyway here is a link for American Standard
and also here is a link for Hughs Supply

Well I done some searching and I found one with a tank, this is the first for me, due to the fact all wall mounts I have install have been in commercial jobs. So you wouldn't have to buy a flushometer (SP?)

Terry, et.al.
Thanks for your replies.This is for our home, built in 1968, it has 3 Case wall hung toilets and 1 Kohler wall hung. They are attractive, have outstanding operation and they are easy to clean around. We are remodeling two bathrooms and the simplest , least work and lowest cost, is to get the same kind in beige or white. Simplest, because the carrier is in the wall and Case and Kohler types require little or no modification. Michigan allows resale of these fixtures , so it is no problem. in the past we have found one new Kohler and one used excellent Case. If we can not find these , we will look at the specs on the Crane-Rexmont and Am. Std.-Glenwall, they might be the next best solution. Any further comments are appreciated and we thank you for the leads on these others.

If your Case toilets are the low boy pattern, then they do require modifcation of the carrier to accomodate a modern one. If you could use a Pink Champagne Kohler, I could help you out.

On a related note, I just had an old (and pink!) Crane wall hung replaced with a new Crane Rexmont. In the new toilet, the water level in the bowl seems really low. Any adjustment that can be made for that or is the water level a function of toilet design/install? I've checked the water level in the tank and it seems to be fine...just below the overflow.
Also, I have noticed that in order to get the entire tank to drain I have to hold the flush handle down. Is this typical for most low flow toilets? There is a float installed on the chain between the flapper and the handle. I thought some of removing it to see if that would fix the problem.

To make a 1.6gallon toilet flush reasonably with gravity, they typically use a higher tank. To maintain the max usage to 1.6g, they don't let all of the water out. The increased height gives what does flow higher pressure.
