You can get red rubber grease from the Big Jimny shop I believe and Martin likely ships abroad.

Yes Kirthynut I know... Martin has sent wheel bearings and stuff for the death wobble, and a top rad hose I needed four years ago to Bulgaria. Before I drove the Jimny over from the UK I picked up some shoes and pads and two disks in anticipation but I only do between 2000 and 2500 miles each year so I still have them along with three sets of spark plugs (I didn't realise I had an iridium set already in)
I'll be over to the UK next spring (March) so I'll pick up some red grease from Martin then and pad/shoe clips, springs etc. I plan also to replace the rubbers and bolts on the calipers next year so the silicon grease is real only a stop gap.
My jimny has to last that's why I'm keeping up with the maintenance and with the help of the knowledgeable people here and my spanners, all is going well so far.
The Jimny had 32,100 miles on the clock Sept '14 and today it has 43700. 2000 miles of that was used up just driving over to Bulgaria.
