The vacuum hubs are a nice luxury but at £150 for such a small spare I think it would be manual hub time on my Jimny for certain! You could also try a local garage who will maybe be able to get an after market one for you that just doesn't say Suzuki.

No chance of getting a pattern one of those! There's no demand. Twill have to be second hand.

I've just been in the garage as I had to do some bits to the Mrs car and I think I have everything in the way of vacuum pipes that attaches to the front axle, rigid and flexi pipes, so I may well have everything you need.

Had to come in as it's got dark and I'm up at 04:30 tomorrow so I'll look at them properly tomorrow and take a photo and post it here - looks like you might be in luck though!!!

Like I say, if it's what you want you can have it for as much as it costs me to post it to you!

Where are you by the way?

Sounds like kirkynut has sorted it B) but from what I recall when being under the front end the pipes are about the same size as brake pipe.
A whole coil of brake pipe and some p clips would be a fraction of the £150 quoted by the main stealer.
