the MQ cvs are smaller - 29 spline versus 31 spline.
All the GQ ones are the same apart from the early, skinny utes that still ran the c200 front.

that is the ute that is halfway between the GQ and the MQ (Called a GQ but to the naked eye you would swear its a inbred MQ/GQ hybrid)

I am amazed at how much it takes to break the stock ones. Watched Cal in reverse uphill about 30deg (rear wheels were around 6ft higher than the front), full lock RH down, front locker in, trying to bounce a front tyre (37") out of a hole between 2 rocks (very grippy rock) and it bounced and got air a good half dozen times before the CV let go...
