We are fulltimers in a 1994 Wanderlodge with an 8V92TA. It needs to have the radiator recored. I have neither a shop nor the physical condition to do that kind of work anymore. Can someone recommend a shop that can do a turnkey job on this?

Look up commercial vehicle replacement radiators. Also pickup a TNT magazine at a truck stop. Detroit Radiator comes to mind at this moment, although there many others.

Here in Los Angeles, Atlas Radiator is the commercial radiator shop.

So far my radiator replacement, the longtime shop in LV,  Arrowhead, who dealt with a radiator core shop in Dallas wanted $2500 for the larger size heavy duty 8 row core. Pretty hi I thought. Considering a new radiator from MCI was $2700. I called Detroit radiator, the girl said she didn't think they could make it, considering they would have to sandwich 2, 4 cores together. Called chicago radiator, turn out they made the newer radiator (2000) still at Arrowhead. Yet to receive the MCI replacement for the 1989 original radiator, the core from Chicago radiator or the final product from Arrowhead, updates soon, lvmci...
