Rear propshaft doughnut

Hi all,

Just a quick question, I have just replaced my prop doughnut due to the old one being very badly split.
The new one is fitted but it looks like it's being pulled in and twisted by some of the bolts, quite hard to explain.
I have aligned It up with the arrows ok. Is this normal?
I will try and upload a picture.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Forgot to mention, all suspension etc is completely standard.

Thanks,
Matt

Matt - Did mine only a few weeks ago... but my doughnut (Guibo joint) is on the back of the transfer box with a regular universal on the diff end. (P38 diesel Auto 1998) with no twisting. It looks like somebody has put the thing together the wrong way round in the past. Have you got a universal at the other end?

(Duh - only just seen yours is a Disco - but it still should not be twisting like that)
