1.

Banks recommends either a

Banks iQ or 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 below). To further increase

engine life by lower EGT’s, Banks also

recommends installing a Monster

Exhaust

®

system.

2.

Before starting work, familiarize

yourself with the installation procedure

by reading all of the instructions.

3.

The exploded views provide only

general guidance. Refer to each step

and section diagram in this manual for

proper instruction.

4.

Throughout this manual, the left side

of the vehicle refers to the driver side,

and the right side to the passenger side.

5.

Disconnect the negative (ground)

cable from the battery (or batteries, if

there are two) before beginning work.

6.

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.

7.

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.

8.

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.

9.

Save this Owner’s Manual as a

reference for system maintenance and
