1.

Before starting work, familiarize

yourself with the installation procedure

by reading all of the instructions.

2.

The exploded views provide only

general guidance. Refer to each step

and section diagram in this manual for

proper instruction.

3.

Throughout this manual, the

left side of the vehicle refers to the

driver side, and the right side to the

passenger side.

4.

Disconnect the negative (ground)

cable from the battery (or batteries, if

there are two) before beginning work.

5.

Route and tie wires and hoses a

minimum of 6” away from exhaust

heat, moving parts and sharp

edges. clearance of 8” or more is

recommended where possible.

6.

When raising the vehicle, support

it on properly weight-rated safety

stands, ramps or a commercial hoist.

Follow the manufacturer’s safety

precautions. Take care to balance the

vehicle to prevent it from slipping or

falling. When using ramps, be sure the

front wheels are centered squarely on

the topsides. When raising the front

of the vehicle, put the transmission in

park (automatic) or reverse (manual),

set the parking brake, and block the

rear wheels. When raising the back

of the vehicle, be sure the vehicle is

on level ground and the front wheels

are blocked securely. Caution: Do

not use floor jacks to support

the vehicle while working under

it. Do not raise the vehicle onto

concrete blocks, masonry or

any other item not intended

specifically for this use.

7.

During installation, keep the work

area clean. Do not allow anything to

be dropped into intake, exhaust, or

lubrication system components while

performing the installation, as foreign

objects will cause immediate engine

damage upon start-up.

8.

Save this Owner’s Manual as a

reference for system maintenance and

service.

9.

Banks recommends that a

Pyrometer (EGT) gauge and Boost

gauge be installed with the Six-

Gun Diesel Tuner to help monitor

performance and exhaust gas

temperature of the vehicle (see part

numbers on pages 2-3). To further

increase engine life by lower EGT’s,

Banks also recommends installing a

Monster Exhaust

®

system (see pages

2-3).
