At the moment I'm still researching the actual volume and grade of oil Suzuki recommend?
Having split my one I have found a decided absence of any oil at all, just a thin smear. So having done some research the oil is the stuff that rc cars have in their dampers and is readily available in many grades. Win!
Apparently Toyota use a 3000 grade in the cruiser and it is a thing to tune the fan lock up using a higher or lower grade of oil. Obviously this depends on the Suzuki spec but it can't be far off and is worth exploring.
Next couple of days if I get chance I will bob over the hill to modelsport and get some supplies in and report back.

Apologies for the off-topic request here, but wonder if while you're over at otley you might ask them whether/when they'll be getting the gen4 Jimny crawler . . I might have more luck getting one of those before the real thing arrives, at this rate of (non)progress!
Wishing you success with the oil hunt for the coupling.
