No different diffs. MQ's run the C200 front diff.

GQ's run the H233B front diff.

Anyone care to enlighten me what mods exactly required to fit Mq rear into GQ front, just that ive got an mq rear with a locker... and a gq with no lockers...

Only thing is that the gq is 4.1:1 and the mq is 4.625:1, can i just pull out the locker and fit it in?

sorry for the hijack!

MQ Rear locker's don't fit the GQ C/W&P as far as I know.
MQ Centre's fit GQ housing's if you have steering on the front.
just need to redrill the bolt holes on the Pumkin and housings.


Bought these and a few other bits and pieces...

I think you'll find that do to that the C/W&P needs to be redrill to a different bolt pattern!
