The only difference between a Datsun 1000 ute differential & any other Datsun 1000 differential is the ratio.
These all have an alloy carrier & are the H145 type. The Datsun 1200 passenger models used an iron diff carrier, H145 differential in 3.9 to 1 ratio

The 1000 Ute & Van used a 4.375 to 1 ratio as standard while the Sedans & Coupe used a 4.11 to 1 ratio.
There was an optional 4.625 to 1 ratio for the Van & Ute as well.
The axle shafts are the same for all.

What do you mean by a "better" differential? Do you want a stronger one, or a higher ratio one, or both, or,.....[other]?

You can fit the H150 differential into your ute axle housing if you use a 2mm spacer & a second gasket, but the lowest ratio available in Australia is 3.9 to 1 with a 3.7 to 1 as the only other available choice in this version of differential.

You could go to the larger H165 rear axle assembly, but you will need to get one from something like a series 1 or 2 Bluebird wagon & narrow it.
The 1200 ute rear axle assembly is about 2-1/2" wider than the 1000 & this is just enough to stuff up your wheel & tyre clearance, but the axles are too short to successfully re-spline if you have one of these & narrow it down. Better to use the cheaper & more readily available Bluebird one if narrowing is on the agenda.

The H145 will hold up behind an A14 if you 'drive' it, even in a spirrited or sporting style, but will fail in short order if you just plain 'abuse' it, so,.... just what is your driving style?
