Why would you want to....they are weaker.

I know the GQ hubs will work on an MQ/MK if you leave the snap ring off but I don't know if the opposite will work.

No

Different splines

Gq can't go on mq Ian different spline and size. The hub will bolt to the housing but only without internals

eh?

I am sure we are on the same page just not speaking the same language!

You take the outer GQ CV stub axle and fit it to the inner CV MQ/MK axle. You then bolt on GQ hubs and leave out the snap ring. Done deal. I got a front MQ/MK C200 sitting here with the mod done to it.
