You could try putting in the following jquery into opacuserjs (i did
it on a koha 'master' instance)

$(document).ready(function(){
  $('tr .status:contains("Checked out")').each(function()
    {
      $(this).css('white-space', 'nowrap');
      var status = $(this);
      var datedue = status.next();
      status.html(status.html() + '(Due: ' + datedue.html() + ')');
      $('span', this).css('display', 'inline-block');
    });
  $('#item_datedue').hide();
  $('tr .date_due').hide();
});

Basically, this concats the contents of the two <td>s into one, while
adding a bit of formatting i.e. white-space: nowrap to the td and
having the two <span> elements displayed as inline-blocks. then hides
the item_datedue <th> and date_due <td>

hope this helps
