Yes, as you point out, all car makes and models can have differential problems. From my experience, Datsun diffs are just as reliable as any other make

B20s don't exist? Do you say that just because the government stamped yours as a B10?

With a 3.95 ratio, it sounds like someone fitted a non-Datsun-1000 axle housing to your ute.

Early 1200 utes were still B110


Late 1200 utes are B120
1000 ute is a B20
1000 wagon is a VB10

1000 sedan is a B10.

All came with plates like pictured below.
1000's were before any compliance, so therefore never had any Australian compliance plate.

My plate has the engine number and chassis number stamped in. All 1000 wagons I have seen, have all had the V scratched in. I am guessing the plates were simply made with B10 printed and the rest was added manualy.
Since early 1200 utes were labeled as B110 still, I am guessing that 1000 utes were also left as B10 on the plates even though they became known as a B20.

What is it that you must invent new fitment?
