Before starting work, familiarize

yourself with the installation procedure

by reading all of the instructions.

The exploded view (Figure 1)

provides only general guidance. Refer

to each step and section diagram in

this manual for proper instruction.

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. When raising the front

of the vehicle, put the transmission in

park, 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.
