GU and GQ axles

Post by RN »

Curious to know if the axles on the GU will fit on the GQ? That is the entire axle hub to hub.

Is the track the same?

If so will all the pickup points, suspension components and ancillaries match..including the steering ball joints?

GU's have a wider track. Best to just replace the whole lot with a GU axle. Bolts straight on, just needs a differnt steering rod.

Pretty sure this is correct. The only other thing likly to be different is the radius arms. But I am sure these are the same.

radius arm mounts the same, panhard the same (some models different bushes) draglink rod ends bigger on gq (taper fatter). gu 40mm overall wider. gu cv's bigger hence tierod longer and smaller ends.
