4wd problem

I'm sure someone will be along in a minute who has done it but you can replace all the steel piping with flexible vacuum lines, right from the start you will probably need some Tee pieces but they are easy enough to get. Several people have done this with good results. Loads cheaper than replacing the steel pipes.

If you are going to be doing lots of off roading then replacing the vacuum hubs for manual ones ensures you always get engaged hubs...

Thanks for the replies guys, ive got sorted with replacement vacuum pipes off cam-suzuki on ebay so hopefully that will fix the problem and Halford im in Washington but originally from Jarrow so know South Shields pretty well so the garage your on about may come in handy if you want to pm me their name and number that would be great especially as my MOT is due next month

Update, quick delivery of vacuum pipes from Cam-suzuki and they are now fitted and my 4wd is now working

Talk about good timing....

yes great timing as the snow suppose to be coming tomorrow and i have a horse at stables where the roads are very steep country lanes

Glad to hear you got your 4wd problem sorted Lynnskatz!

I love my 02 jimny which I got in September. Its had a lot of previous owners but was a good price so we decided to go for it anyway. Had a bit of a nightmare time sorting out all the issues and general lack of care from previous owners. Thought it was just about under control and only a cosmetic bonnet issue after a fire to sort out!! when today of all days, in South Wales, we have now discovered that the 4wd is not working...arrrrghhh! Already has flexible hoses so not a corrosion issue. If anyone has any suggestions they would be gratefully appreciated. Hubby still got to work in it this morning though so still impressed.
