You will still need a roller bearing on the pinion side. Two bearings are needed for proper input shaft support. I was wondering what teh clearance is between teh pinion and the bearing near it. If there is enough clearance there to put a CF or stainless washer there, that would work. Maybe a narrower roller bearing would provide the needed clearance.

How it's setup now, the front pinion tries to push into the front diff, while the rear pinion tries to pull out of the diff.

Maybe just use CF on the load bearing side and a Ceramic Nitride bearing on the free wheeling side of the pinion. Think that would work? It sounds good.
