Which services are the question. Google services is the elephant in the rom.

I wonder if there is a minimal gapps package that can be flashed in recovery, just enough for google play to work. Maybe then we could remove some of that. then again, i may be wrong.

List of removeable apps (items listed below will mean you already need to have a suitable replacement installed before deleting from system): See screens...

Apps that need replacement installed first are google keyboard and lg keyboard if you plan on deleteing both. Plus user dictionary provider or the lg dictionary provider. And also lg home launcher.

You could google for minimal 4.4.2 gapps. Flash and see how they do.

I think i will do that. Just to be sure, i need to remove all google stuff before?

You can delete them all at one time. Do a boot to twrp and wipe dalvik-cache and cache to do some cleanup then reboot
