yeah mate you will be right to use them. that lump on the upper arms is mass dampener, cuts down vibration.

they will definately fit the difference is 15mm as I had a mate pick me up some superior arms to suit a 4" lift for a GU and my mate was in a GQ and when i rang superior they asked for the measurements and told me they were for a GQ 4" lift.
