I'm not 100% sure on the thrust bearing size but I know you can use a normal 1150 wheel bearing in place of the thrust bearing to really tighten up the diff action ... in fact, it's closer to a spool than a diff when you do that.
Yup, those tiny balls. The thrust bearing is supposed to spin as free as possible right? I don't think that it should tighten or loosen itself (assuming those balls from the 1150 are larger) due to any binding, or contribute to any diff action for that matter. I wanted to get a few sets of ceramic balls over eBay, hence the inquiry.

Anyone has any idea what the size is? Both the overall thrust bearing assembly size and the tiny balls. If not I'll take a few measurements and come up with an average in a few hours time. Cheers
