More than likely to be the wrong shafts mate, on the classics they are secured to the diff using a pin or clip depending what type you have, if that's not in place then they can pop out.

if they were wrong shaft they would not have gone in plus the rear diff is a uk same as your car is a uk so should not be a problem really unless the diff is not a uk ?
