tom1974 is correct, you generally need to use the same brand/model pinion as the diff.
The MBX7R uses 8x16x5 bearings, RC8B3.1 uses smaller 6x12x4 bearings.
You may have better luck trying to use MBX8 diffs with MBX8 pinion, these use 6x13x5 pinion bearings, matching the smaller 6mm ID of the AE pinion bearings.
I haven't tried it so you'll have to confirm meshing and shimming yourself, may need to use some extra shims in various places to make everything work.

You can use differential ht mbx8 on associated
