Dear Customer,
If you have any questions

your Banks Monster Exhaust

System, please call our Technical

Service Hotline at (888) 839-2700

between 7:00 am and 4:00 pm

(PT). If you have any questions

relating to shipping or billing,

please contact our Customer

Thank you.

1.

Before starting work, familiarize

yourself with the installation procedure

by reading all of the instructions.

2.

The exploded view (Figure 1)

provides 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’s side, and the right side to the

passenger’s 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; put the transmission in

park; set the hand brake; and place

blocks behind the rear wheels.
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.
