Pajero torsion bar & diff measurements

I've been searching all over, but haven't found much yet. I have a 1993 JDM Pajero 2.5 Turbodiesel, 5 speed MT. From my understanding, it SHOULD have 1278 mm torsion bars and a 28-spline front diff. I am planning on upgrading the suspension, and adding a front ARB locker.

Short of pulling it apart, is there a simple way to verify the above, eg. by chassis-plate details? It's a bit of a pain even pulling out a TB, and I'd hate to have the diff opened just so I can order the locker. Unfortunately, I don't know exactly where the ends of the TB's are while on the truck.

Incidentally, it's model Q-V44WG NXF
Chassis V44-4054250
Engine 4D56 EXT G2SE
Transaxle V5 MT1 5285
OPT G31S22

Thanks

Judging by 5285 - also know as 5.29 - you have small front diff. Since 5.258 gears do not exist for large front diff. So ARB is no go. Sorry!
