No doubt someone is going to tell me how stupid of a question this is but.....just in case....

If I remove/replace my radiator core support I need to disassemble the front end right? Which means hood, fenders, certainly the grill right?

The hood and fenders can stay in place but the bumper and grill do have to be removed as well as the radiator and anything bolted to the core support like the battery tray and all of the head light wiring.

Piece of cake for you sir.

I don't think it's a stupid question.
Did you search it?
Somebody will chime in on a specific order for this. I would tell you but I can only guess that the grill would be the only thing in the way...

By the way, if you get a stupid answer, then you have asked a stupid question and not before then

LOL. I was told "the only stupid question is the one not asked."

I teach ski lessons to people mostly from the deep south who seem to think West Virginia is located north of the Arctic Circle. I have had my share in idiotic questions but I answer as if each one is as serious as salvation.

My favorite, "if you guys can make your own snow, why don't you stay open in the summer?" :-) My answer: "yes we can make snow but we still require an outside temperature below freezing, else we just blow out water."

Thanks guys! I assume I'll have to put the front of the front fenders on blocks to stabilize them?
