I replaced mine with semi-flexible blue airline hose and push-fit hose connectors.
Here's a diagram from the service manual....

Perfect thanks, any suggestions on 4wd low not engaging? Or would it not work anyway if I have no 4wd? Ordered some 4mm silicone hose and will replace the whole system to make sure..

I replaced the original vac pipe with new flexible pipe, it was straight forward to do and worked right out of the box. It took about an hour.

I put the Tee pieces at the top and ran down the internal body work to the diff on both sides. It took about 9m of pipe and total cost was about £30 for the vac pipe and Tee pieces, but well worth it.

I found the problem with the original pipes, some of the original metal pipe near the diff and sheared off, through both pipes and was just hanging loose. It must have sucked dirt into the pipe and blocked them.
