Grille - yes

I just removed the front clip from mine with radiator. Used an engine hoist so weight wasn't an issue, but putting it back on and not damaging the paint is another story. Any extra weight, especially when manhandling it would be detrimental, IMO. The grille looks like a bugger to get at the fasteners, so off the truck should make that easier. GMC might be easier vs. Chevy, but that's your choice.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
