Ft said $3300 + and a 6 week wait. I decided to "fix " mine and it worked out good, still solid. Did not have a rad price but was thinking you should be more than $800 better off dealing with Atlas so wondered what the prices are now on those items?JohnHJohn, the service manager at Quality Motorcoach in Eugene said that when a radiator needed replacement, the chances of a bad CAC was about 50%. The only way to be certain would be to inspect it after it had been removed. I could order the radiator from Atlas for $2200 (6-8 weeks) and then be in a bind if I found the CAC also needed replacement. It is still serviceable, how long would it still be good before I would have to dismantle everything again? The price of the CAC hasn't changed much, apparently. Quote Selected

How did the holes get in yours? Quote Selected
