Instruction Manual
23. Remove the 8 pushpin 
fasteners and 2 large head plastic 
fasteners that attach the driver’s 
side fenderwell. The fasteners are 
accessed through the wheel arch 
opening. Pull the fenderwell down 
approximately 6 inches once the 
fasteners are removed. Disconnect 
the wire harness retaining clips on 
top of the fenderwell, then remove 
the fenderwell from the vehicle. 
24. Loosen the driver and passenger 
side boost tube attachment hoses. 
Do not damage the hoses that attach 
to the charge air cooler (CAC), the 
driver’s side hose will be re-used. 
Remove the boost tubes and hoses 
from the vehicle. The driver side 
boost tube should be removed 
through the fenderwell and the 
passenger side upward through the 
engine compartment. Cover the 
intake manifold and turbocharger 
discharge to prevent foreign debris 
from entering during the installation.
25. Remove the radiator attachment 
bolts and the lower retaining clamps 
shown in Figure 19. 
26. Lift the radiator out of it’s 
lower saddle mounts and position it 
towards the engine so that it is no 
longer attached to the charge air 
cooler. Take care not to damage the 
radiator cooling fins. 
27. Remove the charge air cooler 
from the vehicle. Check that the 
lower mounting peg grommets 
remained in the vehicles frame. 
Return them to their home on the 
vehicles frame, if they came out with 
the charge air cooler.
28. Remove the metal sleeve from 
the upper CAC isolation grommets. 
Remove the grommets from the 
stock charge air cooler and place 
them on the Banks Techni-Cooler. 
Reinstall the metal sleeves in the 
grommets in the same orientation as 
they were removed from the stock 
CAC. 
29. Remove the lower radiator 
saddle mount grommets from the 
stock CAC and install them on the 
Banks CAC.

INSTALATION
30. Place the Banks CAC in the 
vehicle. Align the lower CAC 
mounting pegs with the rubber 
mounts in the vehicle’s frame. There 
is a significant amount of play in 
the rubber mounts that can allow 
them to be aligned with the CAC as 
required.
31. Reinstall the radiator into the 
lower saddle mounts of the Banks 
CAC. 
32. Reinstall the radiator cross 
brace. Leave the attachment bolts 
loose to aid in aligning the CAC with 
the support. 
33. Install the upper CAC 
attachment bolts that were 
previously removed. There is enough 
play in the lower mounting pads, that 
the CAC can be positioned to align 
with the upper cross brace. Tighten 
the bolts.
34. Position the radiator so that 
it’s centered on the CAC. Check the 
gap between the hose stops on the 
CAC and the radiator end tanks on 
each side of the CAC. Reposition 
the radiator relative to the CAC until 
the gap is equal on each side. The 
location to check is shown in 
Figure 20.
