Are you talking about the driveshaft or the half-shafts (axles)?  The
half-shafts have a "key" in the splines that will only let the two halves go
together one way.

Be careful! This is not always the case. There was an attempt to standardise
half shaft componentry with the IRS set-ups from the saloon car range (2000
and 2500) and for a fairly brief period the keyway did not exist on TR6's.
If removing a propellor or drive shaft, err on the side of safety and scribe
or paint the two adjoining halves. That way, you'll know you've put them
back as they were removed.
