I replaced the heater core in my 2002 Winnebago Journey twice! Not sure about your coach but on the Journey, the entire lower front clip has to be removed. It is a matter of knowing which screws to remove and having help lifting the heavy fiberglass clip off and on. Once removed, the box with the heater core is pretty easy to access. It is a big job but the second time was easy compared to the first.
Something to consider if you can live without the heater core is to by-pass it by removing the two hoses and connecting them together. When our second core started leaking, we bypassed it for 3 years and just used the LP gas furnace while traveling if we needed heat. Worked fine. I only replaced the second core since I was removing the front cap to get the generator out for some work.
