The Datsun 1200 used a leaf-spring live axle with an H145 differential. This is a Hitachi design with 145mm ring gear (5.71 inch). It is a lightweight unit suitable to handle the torque from an A12 engine. Light weight is good, remember that heavy parts take more horsepower to accelerate. Some Australian-assembled B110s used a Borg Warner Model 60 rear axle.

Differential

The Differential is the part in the center of the rear axle assembly. Also known as the "Gear carrier assembly", "pumpkin", "center" or CR&P (Crown Ring and Pinion). It has two purposes: 1) reduce the speed ("rear gearing") and 2) equalize power distribution to left and right wheels even when turning corners (differential).

Specifications

Also see: Rear Suspension Specifications

• 3.90:1 ratio - sedans and coupes
• 4.11:1 ratio - VB110 wagons with aluminum gear case
• 4.11:1 ratio - B120 Truck
• Ring gear diameter: 145mm (5.71 inch)
• Torque Rating: about 100 lb. ft.
• Axle assembly width: 1305 mm drum-to-drum

Weight

• H145: 42kg
• H165: 52kg

Maintainence

The stock Datsun 1200 differential is a reliable, long lasting part behind an A12 or A13 engine.

1. As long as it doesn't run dry on gear lube it will usually last forever. So check it every few months for signs of leaking.
2. The only common maintainence is to pack the rear wheel bearings every two years or so. This will also keep the bearings quiet and reduce gear lube leakage into the brake area.

Differential Lubricant

Since the differential is a typical hypoid-gear unit, you can use any lubricant designed for such:

• the traditional "90 weight" gear oil
• the newer 75W140 multi-weight gear oil

For maximum fuel economy, use a modern multi-weight gear oil.

The original specifications (which are still OK to use) are:

• Specification: API GL-4MIL-L-2105
  • CHEVRON Multiservice Gear Lub. 75,80,90,140
  • ESSO Gear Oil GP80,90,140
  • MOBIL Mobilube EP or GX80-90, 90, 140
  • SHELL Spirax 75EP,80EP, 90EP, 140EP
  • SUNOCO Multipurpose GearLub. GL-480,90,140
  • TEXACO Universal Gear Lub.EP80,90,140

Borg Warner Model 60

Australian-assembled B110s used a Borg Warner Model 60 rear axle, starting in Late 1971.

Swapping

Datsun 1200 Coupe, sedan, van, and ute housing are all just slightly different.

discussion in main forum

Sedan axle housing has no welded-on leaf perches. The others do. Plus other small differences.

Differential Repair

Replacing diff bearings or spider gears? Or ring & pinion? The procedure for re-assembly the differential gear carrier is very complicated. Be sure to get the factory service manual.

We recommend: Just swap the whole center section "pumpkin" from a 1971-1973 B110 or 1974 B210 in there. It will be cheaper and certainly easier, someone has one for free. The center section rarely goes bad unless the diff runs low on oil, so your chances of getting a good used one are high.

Yes, B110 and 1974 B210 center section is identical. You could also swap a 1975-1978 pumpkin they say you need a 2mm spacer between the pumpkin and the housing.
