  2. Thanks Pete, I do have a steering lock that I use, especially when in big cities and secluded locations. I was just looking for another layer of protection to hopefully thwart the "bad guys". I just think if it is not quick and easy to steal that maybe they will move on to another vehicle. Anyway, I think an OBD port lock along with the steering lock is a good start. Thanks for your reply Rob
  3. Hi Rob, I have a 200s LC. I looked into the same problem some years ago. Eventually I decided to buy a good steering wheel lock. I lock the steering wheel whenever I park, only takes a few seconds. If the bad guys steel it, they can only go in a straight line, and not very far. Food for thought!!!! Cheers from Pete.
  4. Hi all, I am looking to install a kill switch in my 200s LC. I need advice on what to KILL and how. i.e. Fuel pump, a fuse or a relay etc. or maybe something else??? I would prefer something simple, I am not eager to cut into wiring looms etc. I am also looking to install an OBD port lock, any advice regarding these locks? Trying to have a couple of layers of protection from thieves. Any thoughts/advice appreciated Regards Rob

  7. Give a man a fish and he will eat for one day, but teach a man to fish and you'll get rid of him for the entire trip - hmmmmmm. What kind of music do you listen to when you go caravaning on rough roads - 'rock and roll'. What did one marshmallow say to the other marshmallow - Time to get toasty mate. How do you communicate with fish whilst camping? ⛺️ - drop it a line or maybe a net (internet). What do bears call campers in sleeping bags - soft tacos. What do bears call owners of Kedron Vans - later - much later.

  8. I have same problem first noticed when mirrors were 6 years old and therefore no warranty. I notified Clearview incase it was a batch issue but got no response at all. The casting was clearly not primed properly prior to powder coating.
  9. the Kedron Owners Group Facebook page is the official page and the Kedron Caravan Owners is a page owned by two Kedron owners. Both are worth visiting.
  10. Hello John, are you on Facebook as there's 2 Kedron groups that have vans for sale, or you can make your request there too? The 2 sites to look for are Kedron Owners Group & Kedron Caravan Owners. I hope this helps Sue
  11. Hello there we are located 45 minutes south of Adelaide but happy pick up anywhere on the east coast, thanks heaps John
  12. A great decision to buy the best van on the scene! To assist readers, where are you located, and your preferred location to purchase? Or if you are happy to travel for the right van… Good luck with the search. Chris

    Prior to aluminium steel was used, and the switch to aluminium was for weight reduction. An ATV we had used steel.

    We have owned two Kedron vans and both have been aluminium frames. To my knowledge they never used timber.

    I believe so. I have not heard of any wooden framed Kedrons.

    I am considering buying a secondhand Kedron. Have they always used aluminium frames?
  19. Thanks to all that have relied to my enquiry. I did call Kedron themselves and they told me the number is 120 nm so I assumed the figure is somewhere close to that so I am going in the middle at 126 nm based on your replies. Last weekend I did a complete wheel bearing service with new bearings. What an interesting exercise, in the strip down process in was soon apparent that some else had been there before. Whoever attempted to do this before I suspect was not very successful. I believe they failed to remove the inner bearing shells and just left the old ones in after damaging the hub attempting to get them out . Has any one else seen this ? I have some photos and video on how I managed to remove the shells if anyone is going to attempt the same procedure and would like an easy way of removing the shells Regards Paul
  20. Hi For both our ATV and XC3 fitted with Toyota alloys, Cruise Master recommended 130NM. Cheers, Bas
  21. 180 nm not ft.lbs is what I tension the wheel nuts .
  22. Hi. I presume your Kedron XC5 has Landcruiser 200 series wheel rims, which I have on my Kedron ATV2 and which Kedron fitted to many caravans. If this is the case, my Landcruiser Owner’s Manual (page 656) states the following wheel nut torque. Aluminium wheels: 131 newton metres (Nm). 97 foot pounds (ft.lbs). Hope this helps. Cheers from Pete.
  23. Thank you for that Penny,will add to my list off torque numbers needed to maintain my Kedron in tip top condition.
  24. Hi my husband says 180 ftlbs Foot pounds.
  25. Can anyone help me with wheel nut torque settings for alloy rims on a XC 5
