Both of my 2004 King Ranch trucks didn't come with any conditioner either. It can be ordered directly from King Ranch. Visit the King Ranch Saddle Shop on line at http://www.krsaddleshop.com/shopping...ID=30&catID=82

The conditioner is $9.00 a bottle, not a bad price IMHO. I am going to order 3 bottles Monday morning. The King Ranch copper hitch plug is pretty neat also, but is $35.00, don't know if I am going to get one.

You need to use a cleaner and conditioner that has no silicone in it.\

Amourall is the WORST stuff to use. It shines, but does nothing for really "conditioning yuour leather.

I have always used warm water with a little dishwashing soap (just a little), then used Lexol as the conditioner.

It's like the saying others have used on this site: "Boxers or Briefs"?

The decision is up to you, but do NOT use Amourall!!!

Good luck,

I agree 150% with Beachbumcook. Armorall is the wrong thing to use on leather!
I use "saddle soap"with lanolin from turtle wax and have done so for years. Keeps my leather clean, smooth and supple. Never had a crack or a hard spot. The leather also does not feel greasy after application. Highly recommended.

Thanks for the help. I found it on the kr site and ordered a bottle. My poor seats have not been conditioned since I got the truck about a year ago, so I am anxiously awaiting arrival of this stuff.

Thanks again!

I believe the the King Ranch tag with my seats recommended condition every 90 days. I've had mine for 6 months now and haven't, and the leather is fine. The feel of this leather is awesome and I want to keep it this way, so I plan on performing the conditioning every 3 months from now on.

That may be but my guess is I'm a few more bucks lighter on the old wallet! LOL

King Ranch Leather Conditioner

I also use the King Ranch leather conditioner but am conserned because it does not have any UV protection. I called them (KR) about it and they confirmed that it did not. I sent Ford 3 or 4 emails asking for a recommendation and they only respond "any good leather product".

The Autozone guys says "just pick one that says UV protection and don't worry about it".
