I don't think it all comes out as one unit. Maybe it is possible but I don't know why you would do that, certainly not going to be any easier.
The air con lines make removing things difficult.
You should be able to find a few pictures online of a jk without the grill on.
Sorry I an not going to take mine off. I would have to remove my winch.
I would suggest running a completely separate transmission cooler and not integrating it with the radiator.

Thanks very much for the info.
A couple of things:
* I'm running the stock 6-speed manual box, so I don't need a trans cooler.
* I'll be running the mehanical fan on the front of the merc engine, with a custom made shroud - it's going to move A LOT of air.
I want to keep this as OEM as possible because this kind of plumbing is where a swap will have lower reliability that OEM. The factory setup is tried and tested in extreme hot and cold and mud and for 100,000+kms, so I want that.
It's very hard to find pictures online, because North America doesn't get diesel Wranglers, and almost all pics online are from North American Wranglers.
Thanks,
