Hmmmm ... I wonder on Class C rigs if mechanics can merely remove the front wheels and then remove the metal liner on the engine side of the either wheel well (I think this sheet metal liner is bolted in/on) to easily get at the sides of the engine?
I had the exhaust manifold bolts replaced on our Class C's V10 engine and sure wish I'd asked the mechanic if the above is how he got access to those V10 manifold bolts.
Quite possibly he did that. My Pickup with the Duramax needed new glow plugs. I removed the inner fenders and it made the task much easier.
When servicing the engine I remove the inner fender on the right side to access the fuel filter.
A visit to my friends diesel repair shop and you may see Ford Pickups with their cabs lifted off of the chassis for removal of cylinder heads.
