When you start using a 10T mod 1 pinion, the problems will rise, the gear is simple too small to make a good contact with the spur.

For your project, i would personally get a centerdiff instead of a sollid axle, this takes away a huge amount of stress from the drivetrain, and they can be bought on ebay for 25 bucks. 5 bucks for a mod1 51t spur and you'll be fine.
