According to the ARB catalog, NO

Check the part No. for the MQ rear and the GQ front ...

However, I run a MQ LSD up front with no problem. Maybe another issue.

Sorry but its yours. A mate is about to fit a H260 to the rear of his MQ and is fitting a coil GQ front housing and his current rear H233 has an ARB. His Front C200 MQ diff with ARB will be available here soon.

tony difference may be the thrust blocks in the locker, gq n mq used to use the same locker in the I think was an RD17 with thrust block in middle.
As he is goin mq rear to gq front at worst he may need to get the crown wheel bolts takes from 10mm to 12mm n the centres taken out 1.5mm/side. Ask Kingy as he did this on a mq to gq lsd.
Just strip the diff n have a look.
Cheers Steve.

Thanks Steve. Looks like we are going to just run the MQ Low Pinion in the front for now anyway. The car doesnt really need a high pinion in it.
