Thanks

I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.

If you can gat the truck up on a lift, perhaps, as that would let you slide it up from the bottom. Otherwise, you really should remove at least the drivers side fender and inner spash sheild.
The "front clip" part of your question is somewhat misleading. Most people dont thing "sheetmetal" with the "front clip" term, but rather a front subframe from a Camaro or Nove used to get IFS, which would not work with the stock steering box and column.
