I am no ARB expert and may be missing something. But pretty much all I can tell is that you are trying to get a pattern?

- 1977 CJ 7; Amc 401 .30 over, Howell TBI, modified Dana 20 with Terra Low gears and twin sticks, NV 4500 5-speed, modified Dana 30 and Amc 20 both with 4.56 gears (narrow track), ARB air lockers front and rear, SSBC rear disc brake conversion, MICO Brake park brake, Navaho brake booster/ master cylinder, PowerTank CO2 tank.
I run the same set up, ARB, 4.56 gears. The wear pattern looks like the pinion depth is set to deep to me.

It might be best then to take it apart and inspect bearings and pinion, to be sure.

I wouldn't worry about the carrier. That seems to be fine. If the pinion bearing went out it could damage the ring and pinion gears. Then during the repair you want to make sure the PO set up the gears properly.
I would look over the ring and pinion.

I see marks on the carrier. Your pinion has to be loose.
