Volvo 700 series turbo cars came with two rear end ratios, 3.73 (AW 71) and 3.54 (M46/OD).

The 3.91 ratio was found only in early NA four door 700 series with the ZF transmission. Unfortunately it is a 1030.

Limited slip rear ends were a very scarce option on early 700 series cars (dealer installed only). The 1041 Eaton locker was used on turbo 700/900 cars starting in 1991. Some 1993 240s also have the Eaton locker.

Sorry, can't tell you about the rear end width since my one 240 is many miles away.
