Monster Exhaust System Installation 1. As a precaution, disconnect the ground of the battery (if there is more than one battery, disconnect both). 2. Raise the vehicle and support it with 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.
