Default Help please Banging Noise

After a lil spin last week I have replaced the passenger side rear alloy, hub, lower wishbone and suspension.

Now when putting it into gear or changing gear I hear a "thud" so I looked under the car and the drive shaft seems to be loose.

Does the drive shaft just sit in the rear diff? or is it held in some how? as the drive shaft legs seem very loose when it sits in the rear diff and has alot of play

Would be great if someone could help me out so I can finally get the car back on the road

There's a good chance that you have done damage to either your diff or driveshaft.
