& Boost Tube, please call our

Thank you.

1.

For ease of installation of your

Banks High-Ram Intake and optional

Banks Boost Tube, Please familiarize

yourself with the procedure by reading

the entire manual before starting

work.

2.

Throughout this manual, the

left side of the vehicle refers to the

driver’s side, and the right side to the

passenger’s side.

3.

Disconnect the negative (ground)

cable from the battery (or batteries, if

there are two) before beginning work.

4.

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.

4.

The installation should be

performed at time when the vehicle

has been allowed to completely cool.

This installation requires the installer

to work near surfaces that may remain

hot after the vehicle has been run.

Failure to allow the vehicle to cool

may result in personal injury.

5.

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.

6.

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.
